If you are concerned about the extended 90 degree heat trashing
your film, I'd suggest sticking with Kodachrome which probably
is the most stable slide film in high temperatures. Velvia and
Provia will get a nice magenta cast when baked (my experience).
DMAX goes to pot too.
These days so much film is shot in hot climates that I wouldn't
worry too much other than storing your film at a stable
temperature. But three months at 80-90 degrees probably will be
pushing it for any E-6 based film. I'd make up a little
styrofilm cooler to store your film in. Don't need anything in
it, just something to keep the temperature stable and not let
the daytime temperatures get over that 100 degree mark.
I'm thinking a brick of K-64 here.
