temp and humidity problems

recently, its been getting hotter where i live(central jersey). and because of this my reptile room/bedroom(lol) is having problems keeping the temps and humidity needed. if i leave it how i usually do, with the door closed, windows closed, and humidifier on, the humidity is a little too low, and the temps are too high. so if i open my door or window, the temps get good, but the humidity is too low. i put another humidifier in my room, and that made the humidity levels pretty close to right, but the temperature was still a bit too high. i just switched the bulbs to lower watts so the temperature should be a little lower, but i think it still might be a little too hot. is it ok to not turn the basking lights on? i dont think it is because i know chameleons really enjoy basking, and do it quite often. if anyone has this same problem, or any suggestions on what i can do, please let me know. thanks a lot
