I like to eat my lunch outside every day. I love it in the winter. In the summer, it can be a bit hard to sit outside for the lunch.

It's true hell from mid May till around mid Oct. Dew points around 72 to 78, humidity around 50 to 90% and lows around 80 and highs around 88 to 96.

Not looking forward to it, but thankful for air conditioning.

Summers here don't bother me. NYC summers were brutal, we didn't/couldn't have a/c in the apartment. The subway was less of a joy. The humidity was horrible. The water temperatures at the beaches were cold. Prefer the Gulf at 80 degrees.

I always had air conditioning in NYC, but yes waiting for the subway underground is brutal in the summer.

Was blessed to spend summers from age 1-20 in the Hamptons!! There were about 10 uncomfortable day there each summer (August). After I graduated college and went to work I had the pleasure Penn Station and subways! My Dad told me when he first started work many buildings in Manhatten didn't have AC! I always loved the cold Atlantic to me the Gulf feels like swimming in a bath eek:!

I don't like the idea that while it is "nice and sunny" out, I can't be out because it is suffocating! forget the gulf, it's beautiful to look at but the water feels like soup!

I don't like having to look for things to do INDOORS while it is summer out!!! I'd rather be up north where if it gets too hot I can hike up a mountain and cool off. No colling off anywhere close by...oh well!

I don't understand why so many people constantly complain about this?

I am spending my time enjoying my life - it's too short as it is.
