There's no enjoying this heat. Our humidity is through the roof too. You can go outside at 2am and you start sweating right away. It's nasty.

Re: It's so hot the Devil went back to hell to cool off
Been hot here ten days ago, set records like a lot of places but finally cooling down to the mid 80's. We can go two Summers without seeing 90. Problem as some have mentioned is the humidity. 4 1/2" of rain over the week-end and in the high 80's then. Could see the fog in distance so you know its humid. Had another 1 1/2" on Wednesday. Thankfully living out in the country, it does cool off at night. Dew on the grass doesn't burn off till 10:00. Forecast for the next two weeks looks like the same for the southern half of the country.

Yep. There's no escaping it here either. It's so hot the shop fans make it worse. It's better to have them blowing away from you.
