It may be just me and my aging, sensitivity to heat. And/or our Villages summer weather this year is incrementally worse.
Your opinion, and please—- no Climate Change stuff. Enough already on that topic.

The heat is hard for me to handle, as well. I stay indoors most of the time; gathering in the rec center to play cards or crafting. I get nervous during the lightening storms. (I think I read too many articles about homes getting struck and burning down)¹ Now, a hurricane is stirring near the Yucatan. It looks like it is headed to northern Florida. Governor DeSantis has already placed emergency protocol into action. I know most of you say we are safe in the Villages but we are in the storm track window. Crossing my fingers that all will be well.
I have been here for 20• years. August and September are always the worst. Not really sure if this year is worse than others or we believe it is because of the constant heat advisories. I dont remember getting so many heat advisories in past years.
