We hit 95 F yesterday. I was alright throughout most the day. Then at about 5:30 or so, it started to cool off a bit. That's when the hell came creeping in on us. By 7 PM it was down to 92 sounds nice. But the humidity had cranked & it felt like hell.
The humidity sapped my strength & made me nauseous. My meds are a killer when the heat & humidity soar. Finally at 8, I gave in & knew the AC would have to come on for a while. Even though I'd made it through the heat of the day relatively well, I couldn't hack the swamp air I was sitting in.
The AC ran for 2 hours & the outside temp dropped down to 80. For those of you who don't use window unit AC's, they produce a lot of condensation. We have a bucket under the AC so the water doesn't just stand on the porch. Within 2 hours the 1 1/2 gallon container was overflowing due to the humidity.
I can take a lot of heat, but that combined with humidity just kills me. I still feel off this morning. It's going to hot & humid again today. The AC will be coming on much sooner today.
Cya...
