What about this humid/heat? Im thinking this is the hottest summer of all.. I could be wrong but I really don't remember Minnesota being this humid before.

I don't know about you people but if im outside during this humid crap I start to feel sick.. I dont handle humid/heat very well.

However, the weatherman said its supposed to cool down a bit next week,since its going to be raining and storming.. so we'll see how that goes. But until then, its still hot and humid.. which I really can't stand!

Maybe I need to move..kidding! Not yet! = P

I hate to break it to you but this will probably go down as one of the COOLEST summers on record. This is nothing. It has been a great summer temperature-wise. We didn't even turn on our AC until JULY, usually it goes on in mid-May.

On WCCO last night they were doing a comparison, we have had 6 days above 90° so far this summer, average is 20 days by now.

I find that as I get older I'm not as fond of the heat and humidity as I used to be. I also know that when I was heavier the humidity bothered me more than it does now. This has been a bad year for allergies/asthma too.

Do you think that your health may be part of why the heat and humidity are bothering you this year?

I haven't got sick yet this year.. so Im thinking thats not the problem. Btw.. I used to be ShiNnGsTar*. But I see I spelt it wrong! haha. But no, I don't think that is why the heat and the humidity is bothering me.

Oddly enough, I've been talking about how COOL this summer has been in Duluth compared to others.

We were discussing this with some visitors from northern MN this morning and one of them said that it "seems" worse this year because spring seemed to linger on for so long, all the way into June this year. She said that it was cool for so long that by the time it finally turned into summer we weren't acclimated to summer weather yet.

Sounds good to me!
