Got to remember you are dealing a “dry heat” on the east coast, it is both high heat and humidity which makes things very uncomfortable.
“Got to remember you are dealing a “dry heat.............”
Storms off of Mexico keep the humidity comparable to what I knew in Augusta, Georgia Summer of 1966 when I was at Fort Gordon, or what I knew in Uijongbu, South Korea. Maybe our deserts are dry, but not so much right here where all we have to do is walk outside to start sweating like crazy. No need to exert oneself at all. Hot, and sticky.
We did a road trip out east last month. Was hot - low 90’s in Philly, mid 90’s Washington, upper 90’s in Utah. Utah was much better than the humid east coast to our cool-weather acclimated bodies - but still hot.
When we pulled into our Washington State driveway it was upper sixties. I see the high today will also be upper 60’s, and low seventies tomorrow. I know some might think that too cool - but we are still enjoying it.
(Mid 80’s next week - so perhaps we might still have a week or two of summer this year.)
