Not much different than other years. Enjoy, it will turn cold soon enough.

I’ve been here 18 also. I think it’s mostly age. Not denying it’s hot.

I have family members who lived/worked in agriculture. It is said the weather goes in cycles. I recall as a kid (not living with "air") many summers that we had heat/humidity. My mom would close the drapes, tell us to keep inside as much as possible so we didn't keep opening/closing doors. She'd make meals that didn't require cooking. THEN we'd all sit in the room with a large fan and just "chill". Some years later, we'd moved to a new house that had a walk-out basement. 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.

We came back for festival season. Black Deer Festival - two days of heavy rain. Rock The Moat, heavy rain 🙁, was expecting heavy rain at Hever Castle for last night of the proms but was pleasently surprised no rain.

It’s definitely been a hot summer. Also, as we age we become less heat tolerant due to aging, certain chronic health conditions, and possible pharmaceuticals we may be taking.

I agree!

Thermometers don't lie......:mornincoffee:

Agree, hard to tolerate. Even the predawn heat and humidity is oppressive. We usually pop back and forth throughout the year but this summer after one short trip down we’re staying up North for the duration.

4th summer seems hottest since we are here guess it is old age.

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.

You mean climate change denial???

Just came in from Texas where it was 115 degrees. This is like Fall to me.

I lived in Florida too, but I can tell you that it’s hotter here in Texas than it’s been in Florida we’ve had over 30 days that it’s been over 102, we also had at least a week probably at 110 actual degrees & heat index at 112 to one day I know of for sure that heat index at 116. We’ve had just in our subdivision probably over 100 home with air conditioning issues, fortunately we haven’t. We haven’t had any rainfall here in the Argyle, TX.,area for over a month, 99% of our yards are totally brown. Florida, Texas & everything in between think Ins. rates are high now just wait, plus us tax payers are supporting all the immigrants. Just wait we haven’t seen nothing yet!

I have been in Florida for 50 years, l lived in Vero Beach, Orlando and now the The Villages. I enjoy the heat as I can remember playing on a traveling softball team and playing up to 6 games a day in over 90 degree weather.

That's why we are here in Florida to enjoy the heat and avoid cold weather. Get out there and enjoy it!

Promise??! It can’t turn cold soon enough for this SoCal transplant. ;)
