Does it really get that bad there? I thought Nashville had less humidity than the east coast. At least according to the weather map of relative humidity. |

The map lies.
Well, maybe not, but it's not uncommon in August to get lots of days over 90 along with really high humidiy--heat indexes over 100. |

I think it's all relative. I discourage my Michigander parents from visiting in the summer because they'd wilt. However, I lived in Memphis for awhile and spent a lot of time in Houston and Nashville feels wonnnnnnnnnnderful compared to those places.
I was home yesterday and took advantage of the rare weekday home and ran a ton of errands...didn't notice anything unusual.

Now that TDOT is flush with stimulus money, I consider a Code Orange Alert to mean they're going to be tearing up another road the next day, so watch out for orange barrels.
Of course, I could be wrong. ;-)
