Mother Nature decided the US wasn't cooked enough yet, I guess, so she
turned up the heat a bit. Fortunately, as I just told you on the phone
, it's cooled off to a tolerable level. Actually it's still pretty
warm here, but the humidity dropped from 98%+ down to about 70%. It's
still sticky, but not life-threatening.

Yeah, but you're "down South" where that's expected.  I'm in a
northern climate zone, and it *usually* doesn't get this bad. If it
DOES, it usually doesn't stay around more than a day or two. This was
over a week this time. YUCK! I think I'm going to need to move somewhere
else soon...the winters are getting colder, and the summers are getting
hotter.
I need to live somewhere that is perpetually Spring! About 75F year
round, 60% humidity, always green, only snows on Christmas Day ...
got any suggestions?

Thanks. It did, and now I can tell the heat bothered them more than I
originally thought. Everyone seems to have started a molt...
