For the first time in 17 years

For the first time in 4 years, I'm now worried about our August trip. I can usually manage. But 100?! Probably 95% humidity. Oh boy

We were there last August for the heat wave. The pool offer no relief whatsoever. It's was unreal!

We are going again this August. I'm hoping it won't be as bad as last summer, but it's not looking that way...

August is usually the hottest month here in Florida. Yesterday it was 101 heat index on the Space Coast in the late morning.

No end in sight. A good portion of the southeast is seeing record heat.

I'm ready for winter!

Not really winter yet, Peggy, but it is 57º right now here in Chicago.

My daughter is there now with three of her friends celebrating their graduation -funny, when I mentioned the temps she said she just thought it was the "normal" hot. Good to be young I suppose....

It hit 100 on Tuesday here in Richmond. Our central air was broken. Older dd and I wandered around Sam's Club and the library for a few hours just to escape the house for a while. A knight in shining armor from the a/c company came out and fixed it Wed afternoon. I have to confess I'm surprised it doesn't hit 100 in Orlando fairly often in the summer. I guess all the water from both coasts makes it rain before it can get that hot?

We were there from the 14-19 and I have sweated in places I never thought I could it was miserable. I can work out Insanely in the gym for an hour and not sweat as much as I did in 20 mins in disney. Mind you we only went early in the morning and at night! I can't imagine being there mid day! We enjoy the cooler months much more. It really seemed this trip that many fellow disney goers were on a short fuse. Pushing rude being downright nasty... Two families even got into a fight on a tram. It was crazy and not as enjoyable as past trips. Towards the end my son just wanted to stay in the hotel pool and not go to the parks.

We went once at the end of June and it wasn't even a heat wave and I barely made it. We usually go Nov or Jan. My kids went in March and complained about the heat
