Hot and Humid!!!

[Janet]

I got up and let the dogs out this morning and was hit in the face with high humidity. There is a pretty good breeze blowing, but it's hot too and doesn't feel good on the skin. Suppose to be somewhere in the low 90's today so it will be a very hot and humid day.

Looks like I'll be staying in most of the day where it's cooler.

We have high humidity here all of the time. It just chokes me, lol! You'd think I'd be used to it now since I've always lived in it, but some things you just never get used to! Stay inside and keep cool

It's humid here too, really bad, almost every morning. Then later on in the day as it warms up, it usually gets better. Ahhhh, I just love morning sweat baths!

We're humid and hot here too! The good thing about humidity is that it doesn't dry your skin out like when you don't have humidity!!!! Think positively!!!!!

[Janet]

Diana.....it's just too hot to think positive....LOLOL.

It's that way again today so far....at 7:00 this morning. I'm just not good in this kind of weather. It is suppose to ease up by the end of the week....so hopefully it will.

We have a slight chance for rain today and a larger chance tonight. I sure hope that we get some the crops could sure use it. Then we get a break from the heat for a couple of days!! Yay!!!!!

Bleh. hot & humid is my worst kind of day.

[Janet]

As you can tell....most of us don't like it either....LOL. When I was younger....it made my hair frizz something horrible.

Janet, my hair was a hot mess today
I let it air dry after my shower this morning and by the time I was outside, it was a nightmare!

The only thing I can really say about humidity is that "it sucks big time." Same thing going on today. We did have some thunder and lightning last night, but no big storm. I don't think we got much rain either. Didn't see any puddles in the road.

We have more rain today. In fact, it's lightly raining now. I'm tired of it especially since we've gotten enough for the moment. I'm ready for sunshine and warm weather.

We put some stuff in our pond to make it clear and nice and blue. I've really been enjoying swimming and with this rain, no sunshine, and the cooler weather I'm afraid that the water will be too cold to swim in after this. Have I mentioned that I absolutely love to swim?

Okay, what percent humidity do you have? Ours is predicted to be 98% today, and that's about typical. A few days ago, it got down to 50%. It was sooo hot that day. At 98% my skin feels fine. When we get lower, I feel like I'm drying up like a raisin or something. When we go to Colorado in the winter, my skin cracks (literally), my nose bleeds, my lips crack from the dryness. My family doesn't seem to be bothered by the dryness as much as I am, not quite true, hubby does have problems here in the winter with dry skin on his legs and feet.

I just looked up Baltimore 86%, Topeka, KS 92%, Indianapolis 90%. Y'all look about right to me. Seriously, I'm not making fun or anything.

We do have to you some pretty serious no frizz products and hair spray to keep our hair under control. The young ladies just twist it up in a hair tie and let it go.

Our humidity is at 37% on one place that I looked and here's yours for today. (Personally I do think that it's higher than than because everything's wet.).....

Here's something that shows everyone's humidity........

The high humidities were probably because of the rain. We're not usually that high. Colorado does have lower humidity in the winter and I have trouble with cracked lips and dry skin when I'm out there too.
