I'm so glad the air conditioner broke on a day where the temperature only hit 100 degrees.

What is the verbal irony in this statement?
Who wouldn't be glad to have the air conditioning break on such a hot day?
No one would be glad to have no air conditioning on such a hot day.
The air conditioning breaking was an unexpected outcome.
Air conditioning on such a hot day won't have an impact.
