the heat and humidity take your breath away when you step out into it. The hourlong dog walk has been replaced by a 25 minute walk....and we've moved it from 9 a.m to 7 a.m. Still sweat through all my clothes....obviously it would help if I could lose 25 lbs, but that isn't happening overnight.
Yup. I lived in Central Florida for 10 years so I'm not ultra sensitive to heat and humidity. But I find I like it less and less as I get older. Moreover, summers are much more like Florida even in the Northeast these days.
BTW, most Floridians (residents as opposed to tourists) regard summer the way many northerners regard winter: It's simply the "stay indoors" season. You go from your air condiitoned house to your air conditioned car to your air conditioned job to the air conditioned store and back to your air conditioned home.
When you go to the beach in Florida, you can easily identify those who actually live in Florida. They're the ones wearing shirts and hats. Brutal sun.
