How do people in the deep south get blindsided by summer heat every year??

When I was a kid I could tolerate it better.

Because people are weak

I think a lot of people know it's coming but still bitch about it, I'm not sure anyone in the South is surprised when it's hot out

Those people don't spend much time outside. My Daughter had her HS graduation last Sunday morning at 10 am. It was about 86 degrees and people were falling out with heat exhaustion from sitting in the heat. My son and I were like its pretty nice outside. The fatties can't stand it when it gets above 80.

It shocks me every year how hot it is. Don't know why.

I've never encountered anyone that acted blindsided by it. I think by this time of year, a lot of people are just over it. I know I am, at least the humidity. Being covered in sweat after walking to mailbox is irritating.

Because spring is all nice and shite then out of no where it's suddenly 95 every day

This summer so far hasn’t been too bad

I remember in 2006 my wife and I bought our first house. It was a little cookie cutter with the bare minimum sized ac and no shade.

That summer we had something like two weeks straight over 100 degrees. It was 80+ degrees in the house everyday until the sun went down and my wife was pregnant.

We haven't had a brutal heat wave like that in awhile. The guys that came to check our AC were from Texas because the local companies had too much work to handle.
