We are up 6000 feet in the mountains and it never gets higher then the 80s here.
I look forward to hearing from you experts about what to expect in the summer; just be gentle.  |
Coming from 6,000 to just above sea-level will be an adjustment for sure. Have only been to TV in July once, but the UV rays seemed a bit higher than here in Alabama. I can tell you from experience though, when the temperature reaches 98 and the humity is the same. . . STAY INDOORS! Wear a hat and use lots of sunscreen with a high SPF. Also, don't touch anything metal in your car. Ouch, ouch, ouch!!! It takes a minute or two just to buckle your seat belt. You can't do it in one swift move.
Congrats on your purchase and good luck with the "dejunking".
I can't wait until we get to that phase of our preparations to become permanent Villagers.
As others have stated, you will adapt and love it!!!
