Moulton said the average high temperature Thursday was 103 for five of the largest cities in TVA's coverage area: Huntsville and Knoxville, Chattanooga, Memphis and Nashville in Tennessee.

The humidity there must be terrible.

Chattanooga is currently 102F/68F WB/DB, which is only 16.% R.H.!

“The humidity there must be terrible.”

It has been but there is a break this afternoon. Nearby thunderstorms have dropped the temps a little.
