The real question is whether it is better to fit the top for the first time (do the stretching, gluing, etc.) in cooler weather or warmer. I would think it would be best to fit the top in warm weather based on ERA's statement. It may actually be a trade-off. If fitted in hot weather, it might not stretch enough to go on in the cold (or at least be very difficult). If fitted in cold weather, it might be saggy in hot weather.
