This was yesterday and it ain't bad as long as you stay in the air conditioning.

This summer has been unbelievably hot here. We will wind up with the hottest year on record. The previous record for the number of days above 110 was 33. We are now at about 42 with no end in sight. At least last night it cooled off to a chilly 90 degrees. Yes it's too hot here! please spread the word to everyone to please STOP moving here! I'm handling it well though, I just keep looking at Dave's pictures of Idaho in the winter.

I cannot imagine any classic car's A/C keeping up with that during the day.
Even a 2020 would be hard pressed, I would guess.
Nice and cool here in south central Florida. High of 90...
Ya but the humidity.....

Helping clean up after one in a lifetime was enough...
Nope.
No.
Remind me why I drove 1300 miles again?
Um, yeah... Your A/C crapped out when you weren't here, so this, uh, happened...
Cruise night!
Sorry, between Charley in 2004, many wasted drives over Christmas, scary-*** Orlando, and a car scene where I would want to drive a monster-truck through it, I've become very OK with the idea of spontaneous combustion as a fair trade-off.
BTW, MI summer has been the best since 1988 this year. Figures.

To be fair, I've never been to Louisiana. But they don't have any rodent-themed theme parks, so that can only work in their favor.
Just a curiosity question Chris. In my travels thru "The Sticker Patch" starting in the late '50s I remember almost every house had a over grown metal box with a garden hose sticking out of it on the roof that waz called a "SWAMP COOLER". Are those thingz still being used around there or iz that antiquated tec? Stay Cool, Jer

Evaporative coolers are disappearing as far as cooling homes Jer. They are still in widespread use in commercial and industrial places like warehouses and shops though. Two reasons you don't see them on houses anymore are the newer A/C units are much more energy efficient so the cost savings of a swamp cooler aren't as great and people have become softer and more spoiled over the years. We want nice dry cold air conditioned air and not cool damp clammy air.
lol. You answered my question completely Pal. Kinda what I thought and why I deferred to the expert. Stay Well, AND COOL MY FRIEND, Jer
