I guess it's due to our climate becoming like Florida since 2016 Probably. It doesn't "shock" me at all walking out into it, thats for sure. Go mow the lawn or something and its a different story lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like a steamy jungle out near my corn stands. My garden is happy about the nearly .60" that fell just in my yard. Back up to 94. DP is at least 80 if I had to guess. Maybe 82-83 about 45 minutes ago next to corn stand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
