=====================================
Large areas of the Southwest have the potential for sweltering
summertime temps. One of the most miserable afternoons of my life
(weather-wise) was spent in downtown Dallas after a brief rain
shower. I swear that you could see the steam rising from the
pavement. Sunset came as a welcomed relief, but not very much of
one. I just can't take high humidity combined with high temps very
well anymore. I've got an intense dislike for summertime in
Louisiana. I used to spend weeks at a time at my aunt's house back up
in the bayou country when I was a kid. Hell, there's mosquitoes in
those swamps that could carrying off a full grown duck . . . no
problem.
