I was there exactly that time last year, and it was around 30 C - definetly humid, but there was always the nice sea breeze. :)
Have you made a plan of the places you are going to visit? I think in a week you can see pretty much do all of Istanbul - there is a lot of great stuff to see. Plus you can do a day trip to Bursa on the Anatolian mainland, and another trip to Princes Islands, off the coast of Istanbul - well worth seeing believe me, especially the boat trip there.
