Humid, Humid and More Humid

My goodness but it is humid this morning. The temperature is only 75 degrees which isn't bad but the humidity is so high that you start sweating as soon as you walk out the door. And this is at 4:39am in the morning. I hate to see what it's going to be this afternoon. We did have some summer showers yesterday afternoon and on Monday also. I was so hoping that it would cool things off but it only made it more humid. I know it's not even August yet but I am so looking forward to the cool weather of Fall. Is it hot and humid where you are? What kind of things are you doing to cool off?

We don't have that problem here. We have had some gentle rain this morning and now everything is fresh, though not cold. I hope you get some relief from the humidity soon.

@MarshaMusselman I don't think so - I don't think I've ever experienced it.

It is a little bit better this morning. We had some storms roll in last night that helped some. It's supposed to rain off and on today. You are so lucky not to have the humidity.

You are going through winter where you live, aren't you? I'm not ready for the cold yet but cooler would be nice.

It was very hot and humid yesterday, I had guests for dinner and I was exhausted by the time they arrived. During the night we had rain and thunderstorms, today is still humid, but not so hot.

I bet you were exhausted by the time your guests arrived. We had storms last night too and it's supposed to rain off and on all day. I hope it cools us off.

Showers brought some relief in last couple of days though humidity is still there in daytime.

That's good that you had a little bit of relief. We had some rain also that made it a little cooler but then once the sun came out, so did the humidity.

I just came in from hanging clothes on the line and commented that it's like a desert out there. Actually it's probably not as I don't think there is the humidity in the desert.

I lived in Vegas for 5 years and no, there is no humidity there. It's like walking out into an oven. I don't know which is worse.

When it rains here, it is kind of 'iffy' about it getting cooler. Sometimes it does cool things off and other times it only makes it more humid.

I had to wear a sweatshirt over my t-shirt and shorts this morning. I'm sure it will get more humid as the day continues. I keep the a/c on continuously. I have to go out this afternoon, so I'll put the top down on the convertible and the a/c on if I need to. Stay cool!

Humidity could dehydrate you very quickly drink lots of fluids and try to stay inside.

This is very true. I am one who can dehydrate easily so I always have to have something to drink on hand.

Not doing much to cool off. If peolpe had working hoses around their homes we've talked about using them to spray ourselves off when working in the hotter weather. It's that humid around here too before nine am many days but when the sun comes out the humidity levels drop quite a bit. It's still humid and hot but not quite that bad. Today it's staying around 78 by mid-afternoon, but with the barely there clouds, it's still pretty hot.

Our humidity seems to go up when the sun is out. I can step outside for 5 minutes and I am sweating already.

@simone10 It has been an exceptionally hot and humid summer so far here, it just poured here now the sun is out so I'm sure it's unbearable out there now.
