This weather is garbage. Horrible. Who the F likes this S.hit? Are you a mime that does absolutely nothing? Are you a lazy bum? Do you not have bugs all over you? Do you like breathing warm stagnant polluted air? Do you carry an oxygen tank. Are you in the water? Do you have a wet towel on you? Are you in the AC? Are you in the shade?( which still is incomprehensible). Is your sweat made of ice cubes?

I'll never understand how they live in the south.. But The humidity feels worse here then the south. I need to move. .but.. I'm so glad this season will be over in 2 months and we can look forward to breathable days.

At least in winter you can layer up and stay warm outside. You can't do crap in this weather. Inhumane. Nobody likes it.

Where is the air or wind?? Give me wind at least. Gees. My skin feels different with this oppressive air
I thoroughly enjoyed my 90 minute ride through the woods. Fastest one yet for this loop. Bugs are brutal though, had to resort to 100% DEET

(For those that don't know, the woods are actually more muggy on days like today as the trees block just about any wind there may be)

No AC on either. It was 83 in the house when I got home (cooler than outside), 50% humidity with a breeze. Shower, powder, loose clothes and all is well

Here is where you need to live: Moderator cut: link removed, linking to competitor sites is not allowed

Otherwise, as you pointed out last winter, it's just Mother Nature and you have to embrace it or leave.

No, nowhere in the U.S is my type of climate. It's north of the border. Avg July max of 78??? No thanks!

And that quote was revised since its not easy to "get out".. and can be used for both sides..

"It's mother nature, we have no control so embrace it, appreciate it, or suffer through it until the season changes."

It's suffer time

To give you some idea of how bad the past few winters have been for me I stood outside today and thought "this isn't so bad, I'm actually warming right up from being in that cold AC with a sweater on all day!"

Like I've seriously been ruined. The cold has penetrated my core forever. I think about that Amazon sale and I'm like "summer is half over, better buy sweaters." I thought the same thing 2 months ago (may have posted it here?).

Could have done without the humidity though. I really do hate the "how the hell is it not raining yet?" feeling from days like this.

I thought it was lovely today, not that bad Not perfect of course. Upper 70s is perfect for me. Different strokes for different folks. I wouldn't mind seeing the dewpoint hit 80 as long as the air temp stays below 90 and it's fairly cloudy then it's all good.

Cam, try gander, newfoundland. That climate would be right up your alley. Around 200 inches average snowfall and the average high temp in July is 60 degrees and 52 in june.

Max temps today except some stations didn't report the max till after 8pm so this map isn't reflecting true maxes.. Like Bridgeport and Hartford both 88. Not on this map but you can get an idea how nice it was in the mid west. Lol

This one has the actual maxes.
