Hello Roy, I recall how hot it can get in your area this time of year. We had 97 yesterday but without much humidity, I perfer our area.

Hi Roy... we haven't hit 95 today, standing at 90 degrees. But I did hear that we might get as high as 97 in the coming days.

It's that humidity that gets me in your part of the country. We are fortunate in that it's generally pretty rare to feel humidity with heat here.

Right now it's 88 degrees but the humidity is just over 65% making the real temperature feel like 95. Just got to be cautious in this weather.
