    Even though it's been in the mid 70's to low 80's, it's been very humid and muggy here. I'm not used to this so this makes me feel so much hotter and sweaty than I should be. It's still about 70 outside at almost 11:30pm. I don't have any AC so I hope that I'll be able to sleep well tonight with my fan turned on all night as well as my window open. I don't think I'd ever be able to survive living on the East Coast again. My body isn't used to any humidity any more. I have a feeling that August will be an even hotter month this year.

    Still way too uncomfortable to suit me. Temp hovering around 90 and humidity is still way way way up there. Yesterday it really got to me - knocked me on my butt - soooo sick!! Storms came thru last night but all it did was make it more humid. I'm fading fast.................

    Hang on pom, it's still early Summer. There's always the ice cold rag on the face trick. It works if you're not moving around much.

    Rains came through here & cooled it off some, but still humid. This mornings temp was 79 degrees and 79% humidity. Just wonderful.....

    I am happy, rain, rain and now sunshine, but still just 75°F! Come to Boston, Pom! The rain just stopped, and as I said the sun has come out, but weather.com says 95% humidity - duh! It just stopped pouring!

    Here we are not even 7 days later, and it has been cool and rainy, good for the gardens, but I saw Rusty the chipmunk today and he was bouncing across the grass rather than scampering as he normally does - must not like getting his feet wet, but it was silly to see!

    And yes, the grass underfoot kinda went splash as I walked across it to put out birdseed!

    How's everyone else who was in the H&H doldrums last week?

    Temperature has been in the 70s, low 80s, low humidity, around here the last few days. Lovely!
