Bye Bye Humidity..

After 2 or more weeks of high heat and higher humidity...it all moved out.

No clouds...high of 73...and humidity at 40%...a perfect day!

Took the SC out for Burger and Beer an hour ago. Longer trip planned for this pm.

That does sound like heaven, Steve.
I think we've got a couple of months before we have that sort of weather here.

When I experience that, I usually say, "it's California out."

Now that I've been gone for 25y, I love Michigan! And from here to holloween is the absolute best time to be somewhere on the mitten.

Just not the humidity, or the rust, or the potholes. After long enough in the high desert it's alarming when I'm in the midwest or the northeast and there's some strange liquid coming out of my skin when it's warm. What's up with that?

But seriously, I love the nation's best body-part shaped state.

(go home, florida - nobody needs to see that)

^^^ Totally correct....the fall season here is incredible.
The summers are normally great...but this year we suffered FL like weather.

One of the best things I like about MI....no traffic! Drive like a maniac..if you want.

Nope, the weather in FL is usually pretty mild (temp-wise) because it's surrounded by water that keeps it from getting too hot. Texas is usually hotter, especially farther from the Gulf. You guys had crazy weather this year, more like Texas usually has. This year we've had a very mild summer in Texas which was weird. The world has flipped upside down for the summer.

Fort Meyers forecast for tomorrow is 84º and not supposed to get above 90 for the next several days. Our weather here for the past couple/few weeks and coming up is or has been 93-97º (which I'd consider normal).

I'd expect where I am in Texas or even when I was on the SE side of Houston to generally be up to 5º warmer than most of FL in the summer and 5º cooler in the winter.

Same here, we just got done pouring my last slab for my home shop , it was the absolute perfect day for it . 77 and no humidity ,
It has been a brutal summer, with it either raining, or 90 degrees and super humid.
This is the start of the best time of the year here, I love the weather for the next 2 months, after that , blah...
Sc looks nice Stevie !

Whenever we get a storm like Ida the following day is usually B...U... T full. Todays was 71 F very low humidity and gorgeous. The people of NOLA sure could use a sequence like that rather than trying to recover in sweltering heat.

It reached 107 in my workplace yesterday and sitting at 104 right now. Youse "high of 75" bisches suck!!! Won't cool down here until mid December, other than an occasional random cool day in Nov.

PS - it was 84 here at 2AM last night.
