My parents had made a type of apartment in it with a kitchenette) and living area. We'd go down there as the basement was cooler and she'd do the same thing re: meals. I can't stand the extreme heat and humidity neither so am very thankful we have "air" now!!! I suppose age and other things has something to do with the intoleration. BUT that said, FL isn't the only state experiencing this. The northern states have been too....sometimes worse than here.

You’re right about the northern states. Although in Ohio the extreme heat is short lived. Beautiful weather this week. Low 80s and low humidity which is unusual for August here.
