Yep, try again in Sept. I plant on President's day unless a freeze is in the forcast for my location!

Who has low humidity? Jesus it is muggy and too close to 100 for human survival outside.

From my location you do. Every morning I have a heavy dew on the ground. I was raised in central Texas and believe me , you have lower humidity than I have. Most of the time in the summer the humidity during the day in Central Texas is in the twenties or even lower. Not like West Texas, but lower than Southeast Texas. It is fun when I go to my parents by Waco and my mom complains about the humidity. Not even close to what I have here. The only advantage is it is so humid we rarely get to 100 degrees.

This humidity at these temps is horrendous. today is down a bit. It is at 36% right now at the heat of the day but it has been this hot and a lot more humid. Usually we are low 20's high - teens by this time of year. I will look forward to the time of dry heat. It has not come yet. With that high to the east in the gulf makes the gulf breezes head north quite far , but no rain so far. We have had low humidity at 50% and higher. You guys are close to 100 today in Lake Charles so it IS misery. Is that in the heat dome of town?

One time our weatherman, which is not the best in the world, said the humidity out side was like a desert, with the afternoon humidity in the lower 40's. Later it did get low, down to the twenties. But that only lasted 2 or 3 days. I guess I will never get use to the summer mornings always, except for about 10 days, having a heavy dew.

What is bad is it does not cool off in the evenings. I use to live in west Texas near Abilene and even though it was 105 during the day, in the evenings it would cool down a little with a breeze. You could go for a walk without sweating before you got to the end of the driveway.

We also are surrounded by woods and have a hard time getting any breeze. The cities of Beaumont and Lake Charles don't really get the heat dome effect, with temperatures hotter to the north of us.

I know, I am missing the cool mornings and evenings. We have not had them lately. 12 midnight is muggy as all get out.
