I have to head out to Houston next week for work and I am not looking forward to how hot it is down there. I can’t even handle the heat up in here in the northeast.
Yeah but its been so disgustingly humid up here. At least in Houston it will feel like youre being baked to death and not smothered with a hot wet blanket...to death.
I’ve got bad news for you if you think Houston isn’t humid.
It’s been 100+ with daily thunderstorms for the past two weeks in Houston 🥲😢
You missed all the rain and overcast we got this week. Was not as miserable. Next week, we'll be back to triple digit heat and full blazing sun.
I’m staying right by a rail trail/path whatever you want to call it. I was going to bring my running shit and get some runs in during the early morning; you think it’s worth for me to even do that?
Ya. Mornings arent bad. Just usually super humid. So dont be suprised that you cant catch your breathe as usual. I usually go for a jog after sundown, but thats because i'm not a morning person
