Is it Humid where you live?

[Jack_Dawson]

Poll question: Is it Humid where you live?

I was in Louisiana in June once...damn. It was like being on another planet. No such thing as leaving your window open for a nice breeze. No joggers. My glasses fogged up. Crazy. Then I went back to CA where everything is "normal".

[Droopy]

1. Ohio is somewhat humid in the summer

But it was nice today and we ain't got anything on them southern states.

[Wcross]

2. Just north of the Alabama state line in Tennessee- Yes!

Humidity at its finest!

[bridgit]

3. nope, it's a dry heat here...

[tyedyeto]

32. That's what they say about AZ in the summer

[NoPasaran]

4. Austin is humid

But Louisiana... that's like being on Venus.

[Jack_Dawson]

9. You stole my line

I'M the one who coined "Louisiana = Venus". Such a strange place. Fun, but strange. I'm telling you...literally not one jogger.

[NoPasaran]

17. Mighty fine eating in Louisiana, though

Not too sure what Venusian cuisine is like.

5. It had been warm and dry in Iowa

but now it's hot and humid. Good weather to brew some bad storms I'm afraid.

[Shoeempress]

6. Cow Hampshire, usually not very humid. .

[Dudley_DUright]

7. FL in the summer

'nuff said. Thank God for AC.

[Jack_Dawson]

10. Ever tried to go a day without A/C?

Juss wonderin'...

[Dudley_DUright]

13. Yes, when a hurricane knocks out your power,

you really don't have a choice unless you pony up big bucks for a generator. One of my colleagues decided to get a natural gas powered generator that automatically kicks in if the power goes out after the hurricanes last year. Me, I just tend to bug out of the area and stay at a hotel. :-)

[Jack_Dawson]

15. So you literally cannot go 24 hours

w/o Air Conditioning.

[Dudley_DUright]

16. In the winter, no problem

In the summer, you would not want to try it unless you like dripping with sweat while sitting on your couch watching TV.

[nytemare]

33. You got that right!

I remember the day after Hurricane Charley, how hot it was outside moving debris. UGG!

[RubyDuby in GA]

8. Georgia checking in!

Nothing like the Deep South in the summer! :)

[Jack_Dawson]

11. R U a native?

Or did you move there from somewherez else? Cuz I heard that people who live in the deep south actually "acclimate" to that shyte weather. Is it true? :shrug:

[FLSurfer]

12. I moved here (FL) from CA

a while back. Yes I've acclimated.
I actually breathe better with the humidity, but it did take a while.

Living on the beach helps, I suppose. The sea breeze keeps everything much cooler than even an hour inland.

[Dudley_DUright]

14. Yep, and I live just about an hour inland and don't get

much of those nice sea breezes. :-(

[aquaman]

18. I'm in South Carolina.............

So, humidity is pretty brutal this time of year. You begin sweating about sixty seconds after you go outside.

[Not_Giving_Up]

19. Houston area...

Does it get any MORE humid than here?

[Jack_Dawson]

29. I'll be there Wednesday...

Any suggestions? :scared:

[Not_Giving_Up]

30. Stay inside

If you must go outside, hydrate, sunscreen, and clothes that breathe.

[tibbir]

20. I live in Houston. You better believe it's humid.

But you actually get acclimated to an extent. I still go out for my 3 mile walks, even in the afternoon, I just drink plenty of water.

[texanwitch]

23. I agree with you, I have a dog to walk everyday so I now have gotten

used to the weather. Water, water, and more water before, during and after.

I grew up withour AC, houses used to be built for that.

[all.of.me]

21. nope. southwest desert.

that's why i'm here! i've been in arkansas in late july. THAT was gross! i was glad to get to tennessee after that! it felt dry by comparison. i was actually glad to just get the fuck back home (it was a car trip to nc).

[Kathleen04]

22. Sometimes..

Last week I experienced the "fogged up" glasses for the first time. I'm originally from Southern CA, but I'm in Long Island right now. Some summer days can be pretty humid, though its been nice out this week...it's also been relatively cool out.

[ronzo]

24. ungh.

I was in Louisiana in June once...damn.

"Air you can wear."
:toast:

[Kathy in Cambridge]

25. Generally yes. Today was pleasant but tomorrow is back to the muggies

[VTMechEngr]

26. Southeast Great Dismal Swamp Virginia checking in.

Yep, Its humid everyday.

But in less than a month, I can say :hi: to the south as I head Connecticut way.

[kodi]

27. today i watched a fish walk down the street with no breathing problem

its that humid here. my mildew have mildew on it.

[Jack_Dawson]

31. Wharz that?

[u4ic]

28. No
