I’m not from this area of the country, but I have experienced some really hot summers in other parts of the US. But nothing really compares to this weather. It is unbearable in every way. I feel like I need a shower just sitting here and dehydration is inevitable.
Why is it so brutal here!?
In: Planetary Science
I too noticed this when I moved here from the Midwest. The reasons are multifold.
1) You are closer to the equator, therefore higher sun angle and more sunlight hitting you due to less atmosphere to pass.
2) In general, it is nearer the gulf so the humidity is generally higher. More humidity makes it seem like it’s hotter.
