Drove through the bottom of Ga. once. 100F, 100%. You had to be in air conditioning, or in water. Oh, and everything smelled like a garbage truck or a urinal.

Same thing in SFL.

I live away from the coast in Florida, so the Gulf breezes aren’t direct, but apparently there’s enough movement in the air current from them to prevent the stifling heat I felt when traveling through Georgia’s interior one time.

Do these people not understand what happens to the non-human elements without a/c or even fans? Rust, mildew, mold in cabinets, etc.? Any refrigeration units have to work harder and will break down faster, as well as computer and other equipment that require cooler temperatures.

I drove through southern Mississippi and Louisiana one summer, same thing.

I have been in Columbus MS when it was 110 and 100%.

It was nearly foggy. Visibility about 100yds.

And yes, it had a festering stench to it.

Try Longboat Key, Florida in July. :)

My sister and I went to visit our grandparents and we set out at 8am for the beach. A 20 minute walk.

Within 5 minutes we were both drenched in sweat. That azure blue water never looked so good!
