In Central West FLA, it will be 87-92 degrees every single day currently through Sept.
Doesn't matter to me, as I still do everything outside that I wish to, except for the frequent short pour.

^ that would kill me!
We have a warm day today about 92 but we have dry heat here. We have lows in low 50's and 40's and usually mid 70's till high noon here. We have had less then a handful of 90 degrees this year so far, and that is a good thing.
I'm a winter person and can't wait for ice fishing, snow shoeing and hunting in the cold and snowy weather.

High of 102F here today, yesterday 103F. Hot, hot, hot!! And so humid.
Also we have a mandate to wear masks outside as well as inside, starting tomorrow. It sounds terribly miserable for those working outside.

Hey Tampa has still never had a 100 degree day, but the "real feel" temperature is usually a high of 106 daily.

We're close to you in North Texas but further away from the DFW thermal mass. Today was 99 with a heat index of 106. Yesterday was 101 with a heat index of 111. Unusually humid for this time of year. We had a brief thunderstorm blow through about 3am with 40-50mpg gusts. Not much rain but it rearranged some stuff on the patio.

I went to Mineral Wells Tx today for an errand. The temperature reach 110 but was mostly 108 for the hour I was there. 18 miles east in Weatherford TX it was about 101. Odd to see the large of a variation in such a short distance.

We actually had the coolest weekend this Summer so far (around 80*) so I got busy with firewood, and hauled in another 200 bales of hay for our horses.
Last week was an average of 95* in the day, and 75* at night, and humid as hell with heat indexes well over 100*.
I still get things done in the heat, but just wear less clothes.

This weather is awful!!
Every morning starts off at 100% humidity. Then drops off a little. AM temps last 2 weeks or so at 72 going up into the low 90’s. Tough to find a good time to go running. Humidity makes breathing a chore.

We had Junuary this year. So far the first two weeks of July are Juluary. My basil, peppers and tomatoes are taking their own good time growing up. Any who cares can send me about 4-6 degrees of heat each day.

I’m certain that those of us in southern AZ are more than happy to assist you with a donation of 5, 10, 15 or even 20 degrees. That might even get us below 90 for a few minutes. Please submit your request to Governor Doug Ducey with “Give Me Your Heat” in the subject line  . Sorry, but we don’t accept heat returns.

Expecting 80 degree heat all week long, but usually cools down in the 60s at night.
May be using the AC. I guess I can't complain!
I would not do well with 100+ heat!! Stay cool and hydrated everyone. :-)
