Florida Heatwave? Is it still Unseasonably Hot Down There?

[WaltD4Me]

I read Florida is having an early heatwave and that it's unseasonable hot there right now...is that still going on? How hot is it? Is it humid too? Heat I can handle...Humidity...not so much.....

We leave next Sunday... any chance things will cool off some...go back to normal...by then or should I be prepared for hotter than usual in early May?

We did have a heatwave, but it was nuthin' compared to summer. The temp was in the low to mid 90s, but there was very little humidity.

It's been cooler the last few days and right now (2 hours north of Orlando) we're having a beautiful morning in the 50s.

I dont think its any hotter than normal I just think it feels that way since there hasnt been much rain. I agree with the PP Summer is A LOT hotter.

It's absolutely wonderful! Mornings are in the 70s-80s, sometime between noon - 3pm is in the mid 90s and at night it goes down to the 60s. LOVED it! We got hit with two short thunderstorm bursts while we were there. But it only lasted 10 mins each and when the storm was done, it cooled down the mid 90s to something more comfortable and less humid.

I was there over the Easter break and It was hot but the humidity was very low. We only got rain 3 times in 2 weeks. The late night/ early morning we arrived. One day the second week we were in Universal and got poured on. The day we were leaving just after I got the gas at Hess in DTD for the long drive home.

There were a couple days over a week ago we were in low 90's but no humidity so it was not bad at all. We are 68 now and still no humidity issues. Very dry here to me! I am in N. FL though.
