When I visited the south, I was expecting the warmer rapidly changing temperatures.
I studied the weather channel before leaving and I packed my tote with everything I thought I’d need.
It wasn’t until I stepped off the plane that I realized I’d miscalculated! The temperature was definitely as boiling as I was expecting, but what I wasn’t anticipating was how humid it would be. I felt so deranged for not thinking about the intense humidity levels! While I was standing on the curb at the airport, waiting for my ride, I could feel my hair frizzing up and the sweat dripping down my back. I was supposed to spend an entire week here, but I was already dreading any time spent outside. When my neighbor picked me up, I suddenly got in the car and directed the air vents onto my body; Just my luck, the A/C in her car wasn’t cooling respectfully. There would be a burst of cool air and then a burst of boiling air, however all the boiling and cold air was confusing me and my body and I couldn’t’ cool down respectfully. The car ride to her house was miserable, because I still wasn’t comfortable. I still felt as boiling and humid as I did when I stepped off the plane. Thankfully, as soon as I walked into her apartment, there was instant relief, and her A/C was blowing cool air all throughout, and the humidity seemed to disappear. I could see the condensation building up on the outside of her windows, which showed me just how humid the air was outside. I rarely left her house during the entire trip because I couldn’t tolerate the humidity along with the heat.
