summer
SUNBLOCK - in summer you will see bandaids on ears & noses guess why
Somebody told me just go out but it's HUMID and hot - you can go do things in the morning or at sundown still have heat but not sun. Midday when you go from sun to shade you'll go ahhhh |

Have survived 3 summers so far. For me it’s not the heat, it’s not the humidity, it’s the incredibly intense sun that just kills me. Hiding inside during peak sun has been my strategy, unfortunately.

My wife and I play golf year-round; in the summers most often in the afternoons because courses for the most part are wide open. When my wife is not hitting the ball she is usually sheltering under an umbrella or under a tree. For myself, neither are necessary. I also enjoy walking on a summer afternoon; far fewer people. In winter, no matter where you are in TV, you're surrounded by people, oftentimes noise, always distractions. Not so on a summer walk. You can take time to enjoy the sights and the weather unbothered by internal combustion engine noise and odors, dangerous golf-cart jockeys, etc. It is odd, maybe, but I've heard other Minnesotans say the same thing: my body seems to absorb the summer sun and heat, feeling more alive in the process. I don't discount what it could do: I drink plenty of water, iced tea, etc., but I welcome the summer sun rather than sheltering from it. |

I’ve been here nearly six years. Last summer was the hottest I’ve experienced. 90’s with high humidity feels hotter than without. Expect temps to be in the 100’s as summer progresses with increased humidity. I’m from the north so on those days that are unbearably hot I imagine it’s a snow day in NJ and stay home. You will be amazed at how quickly you acclimate to the heat. Also, expect hot weather through the end of September at least. Welcome to Florida

Shortly after Al Gore invented The Internet he invented Air Conditioning. That solved all the heat problems here in the summer.

We are Missouri/Floridians so we spend the winter in TV and go back to Missouri before Easter. Kansas City summers actually get hotter, periodically, than TV. We will get 100+ degree temps with high humidity for a few weeks. The difference is, in TV there is very rarely a break. Mid nineties every day for months on end. In KC we will get an occasional day in the low eighties or even seventies. Another difference is in KC we often endure draught conditions in the summer whereas in TV in August (we’ve never been there in July) it rains for fifteen minutes or so virtually every afternoon. For several years now we have spent August and September in TV, and love it. The whole vibe of the place is different with less traffic, easier restaurant seating, more tee times, easy seating at the Squares, and simply a less frenetic pace. We do have our own pool so that makes it even better and is a motivator for getting there in the summer. See you in August!
