The Heat is On.

I worked out of New Orleans for awhile back in the day. Nothing like waking up, taking a shower, walk outside and be soaking wet within minutes, like you're still in the shower.
Learned real quick you take at least two real showers a day. lol

The only good thing was getting afternoon showers that'd cool things off for a little while. The downside was when it rained too hard and all the streets flooded. I'd add, I lived @ Jeff Davis and Palmyra with off street parking and streets didn't flood too much there. So, I was out of the danger zone. But, when I lived in Gentilly, OMG the streets would flood with only a few rain drops.

My weather station shows a peak of 111.6 at 3:30 today - man, we need some relief and I don't see any in sight! This is in the DFW area. Just saw on the news the last time it rained here was 33 days ago. My water bill will probably be more than my electric bill.

But it's dry heat, I see in your area humidity is in the low 20% range. With dew points below 60degrees.
Try that with dewpoints in the upper 70's or higher.

Looks like we will again get a taste of the heat next week, backup into the upper 90's,

It was 108 here yesterday, and my thermometer (old school) on my patio said 112. It is just stupid.
