One of the biggest differences from many places up north is the duration of the heat. Whereas up north the heat waves come and go and typically don't start until mid June and are typically done with by the end of August, down here, the heat starts by the end of May and pretty much stays that way through September and mid October. That being said, I found that you do get acclimated to the heat ... but you do look forward to the days in October that "only" get to 89.
