im glad the air conditioner broke on a day where temperature only hit 100 degree.

in my opinion the whole sentence is a verbal irony sentence.

Verbal irony occurs when the literal meaning of what someone says is different from—and often opposite to—what they actually mean. (in a sarcastic way)

Example:

When there's a hurricane raging outside and someone remarks "what lovely weather we're having,"

when its too hot (42°) and you say wow what a lovely weather.

I hope it is helpful! :)
