At 1 am it was still 84° here, and 88% humidity! It probably would have felt worse then, than when I was out there earlier.

I wish we would get some of that rain! It's been horribly hot and dry here lately. I think we're drifting into a drought. The normal afternoon thunderstorms seem to have dried up.Forecast to rain all day. Right now it 75F-24C (feels like 86F-30C), will be going up to 79F-26C (feeling like 95F-35C). Then dropping to a cold (to me) 63F-17C over night.
Going to be like that for the next week or so but just looked up June's historical average for here, is 75F-24C and 57F-14C , with 11 days of rain- well, I think we've already passed those 'days of rain'.
Doesn't say what effect humidity had.
Last couple of days haven't been bad; 83° and 89°, with low humidity, and high winds, especially yesterday, so it was bearable out there. Today, OTOH, was not nice, though I will say it only got to 96° (2° lower than forecast). But no wind, and really humid, so I didn't do much out there today! Supposed to rain hard tonight, but I'll find out later how much I got - as usual, I don't turn off my timers due to forecasting.
I am starting to hear rain, however. And the hard stuff isn't supposed to get here until 2-2:30 am.
I feel so bad for you poor Texans because like you said you are either getting flooded or fried. I do not see how ya'll live there. I tell you one thing ya'll are some really tough cookies scratching out a life in that climate.We had record rains this year, up until about the second week in June. Just like every summer, Mother Nature then turned off the faucet. There is no rain in the forecast for the next ten days. There are seven out of ten of those days forecast for 100F or more, plus two more at 99F.
Seems every drought ends with a flood, and every flood ends with a drought in Texas.
