    Houston as well here. I have to go out early in the morning or after I get home at night. And I still take a bottle of water with me and down a Gatorade when I get home. This is the first summer I've been seeing through clothes consistently. :s

    I look at the temp app. It says 91 and I think... not so bad! Until.... Heat Index = 105-109 :'(

    Southern CA desert here. Only 110F degrees today with some humidity but not as bad as most of you guys. Considering that we had days between the middle of June and July with temperatures between 114F and 122F, today is not that bad. The weather men promised that next week we are going to have a cooling trend with a low of 102F and a high of 105F. B)

    I haven't done any outside walking since May. Good thing that I have two fitness center in the community.

    We've had a shockingly cool summer in central SC. No days in the 100s ... YET. But summer is more than half over. A month or so from now, like Punxsutawney Phil, we will poke our heads out of our air-conditioned burrows and again sleep with the windows open.

    When I moved here, a local with a thick drawl told me, "For nine months of the year it's lovely and then we have three months of HELL." I guess that beats what a local told me when I moved to Montana, "It can snow any month of the year here."

    It's why I'm excited to be going up to Colorado for two weeks in October. It's going to be nice to run in sleeves and dark colors and not be dying from the heat.

    Kudos to you if you can run and exercise at such a high altitude. It takes me more than two weeks to get use to it; and when I do, it's time to came back home.
