What's the weather like where you are?

[olbriar]

You don't want to know.


Here, the only time the humidity grabs my attention is when it's "fire weather" low--as in single digits, combined with high temperatures. The rest of the time I just laugh at my fellow natives as they're complaining about how HUMID it is...

The high (for here) humidity is not that uncommon this time of year. But we did not receive the big spring rains this year. I don't really know why we have higher than normal humidity. Then I have to say it is extremely odd not to have some wind. It's almost always windy.. after all, it is Kansas. My wind gauge shows ZERO wind and has most all week.

84° and 62% humidity at 9:41 PM

Nice cool morning

 

[olbriar]

It was cool here there morning as well... not that cool however. It's been raining some each night this week which is keeping the temps down. It is also keeping the humidity nice and high... yuck!

21C light cloud, light SW wind mainly sunny.

Around 90°F but with 75% humidity it's frikken oppressive. Plenty of fuel for Isaias to dump a load of rain on us Tuesday.

It's South Carolina.
It's August.
It's hot, humid and muggy as all get out.

I guess you can add soggy to that tomorrow.

Crazy hot! They're expecting 127° in Death Valley...

 

[olbriar]

And I was going to complain about my 94° temp with 44% humidity.

As my mom loved to say--while we were bitching and moaning--'but it's a DRY heat!' Met with

But I do understand your pain, @olbriar. Humidity definitely makes heat worse. Hope you're staying cool enough! You're not mowing, are you?

Yes, I still have my lawn business. I'm basically retired so I only mow three or four a day. The humidity is always much worse when working over damp grass. And I know I've mentioned it a number of times this summer but I'll reiterate, Kansas has lost it's winds.
86.4° with 61% humidity at 8:05 PM as I post.

 

[MoodyBlues]

Well, I hope you're not overdoing it, @olbriar. We're not spring chickens, you know!

 

[Milo Willamson]

It is not the humidity I do not mind,
is people!!
Extra light summer evening, around 70s mostly.

 

[olbriar]

Appreciate your concern Moody. Fortunately I'm still able to do my eight hour day and still mow afterwards. My father always said that an old man will rust out if he sits too long. I do believe there is merit in being active.

We're in a "rare Stage 3 emergency" right now; details here. We're having rolling blackouts for the first time in almost 20 years.

I know! I'm having awful flashbacks of those horrid Dallas summers. 110° temperatures and 95% [or more] humidity...just miserable.

Okay, I think we should all stop bitching about how hot it is--unless you're in Death Valley. Its temperature yesterday, 130°, hadn't been hit since 1913.

Death Valley is the hottest place on earth, and it's on track to set a new all-time record. Stay tuned...
