I don't miss the Texas humidity.
My D-I-L complains about the humidity in Iowa in the summer (July especially)

From the internet -
Iowa's summer humidity is typically high, with Yahoo saying the state having the 7th highest relative humidity in the US, at 72.4%. This means that summers in Iowa are hot and muggy, with daytime highs often averaging 90°F

Let her come down to Georgia and spend a week in July or August with 100 deg. and 90% humidity. She will realize Iowa ain't that bad.

We can hit 100% in July and August. Granted, we're only talking in the 90s most of those times, but at 100%, it's crazy. In fact, we tied the record previously set by a town in Florida a couple of years back.
We get the gulf air pumped up here plus the corn sweat - which can dump 4,000 gallons of water pre acre into the air.

Can imagine corn sweat is bad.

You guys at least get a decent breeze though, right? That's the worst thing down here, it's very seldom we have any air moving in the summer unless there's a storm coming in.

Yeah, I thought 75% plus 100° heat was bad, but screw that.

It's windy here - except in July, August. Then you wish it was windy.
We have fans we put in the windows to get a breeze, or just use the AC.
I used to take a big squirrel cage fan to the engine shows to run off a hit and miss engine for a breeze. (the shows were in July - hotter than hell)

I wanted a more classic look to the front. I put some amber overlays on the running lights/turn signals. Gives it more of that YJ/TJ kind of feel. I also finally Plastidipped the silver sport s wheels. I don’t love the black, but it’s much better than silver for now.

It's a good thing. I'm pretty sure I have it about as much as you.
I think that's a common thread here on the forum. I like to say that I'm being meticulous. 😂
