Re: I Feel Like I'm Going To Combust.

I'm in NY.  state, but it can get very humid, and this is one of those days. I did outdoor chores early, and you could still cut the air with a knife. It is my least favorite weather.

I feel like I live in a haze of humidity in the summer in MI except by the Great Lakes.

If you've got AC running and you're still uncomfortable, you need to change the setting or get it checked out or both.  With AC there's no reason to be uncomfortable.

I also dislike hot weather and humidity.  This week in Chicago it was (until just about 6:00   unbearable here.  Used to look forward to summer and outdoors, but no more.  Wearing that mask makes it even worse.

The heat I can handle @CrazyKittyLvr2  but that blasted humidity, not so much. Thankfully, I use my A/C, and not sparingly.

 

Here's to some relief for you soon.

Heat just exhausts me.  Heat and humidity is even worse.

One thing I've never understood is why some people are positively energized by hot weather ..... and some are knocked out by it.

 

Anybody got an answer to that one?

Re: I Feel Like I'm Going To Combust.

I am one of the few people who Love summer with the high heat and humidity.  I am always cold.  Here in PA we get both during the summer months.

 

I was born this way.  My father was too.  I guess It might be genetic...

Re: I Feel Like I'm Going To Combust.

 I hate the heat but the humid days are draining! Today was 91 and humid! 

  I recall the days when there was no air conditioning.

  The first I remember was the Village theater. There were flags decorating it with fans blowing making them appear like icicles. They didn't sell drinks there, but had a freezer with frozen candy. The zero bar had a polar bear on the wrapper. 
   At night I'd sleep on our porch glider. We drank ice water and lemonade, sweet iced tea. Ate watermelon.

    My parents got an air conditioner for their bedroom when I was in high school. Once I slept under it on the floor and was very stiff the next morning.  
     And then there was cooking fried chicken on hot days!

     I'm thankful for air conditioning!
