We have that type of weather from Mid April till November. It gets stinking hot and humid with no breaks at all. I have adjusted my schedule now to where if I do something outside I do it EARLY in the AM or late in the afternoon. The next 7 days is supposed to be in the 90's during the day and dropping into the mid 70's at night. But that mid 70's is like the mid 80's anywhere else because it is so stinking humid.

Alot of our roadwork here is done after dark and during the twilight hours. The road crews work midnights and work under huge spotlights. They are so bright it is like daylight out when you drive through one of those construction sites. :)

I picked up a HyperKewl vest to wear when its hot out. It works pretty good and last a few hours between soakings. You can find them on e-bay for around 25 - 30 bucks. They work off evaporation.
