If you aren't getting temperatures well above 100 like they have in Arizona, you should be good. I water my plants a little more during the times when it does get real hot. If you keep it too dry, you will see old leaves turning brown faster than normal, and if it gets to hot or sunny, you will see yellow burning in the leaflets. Those will be your indications to see in advance if you are going to have a problem, but I would think you should be fine.
