Hi
From Florida's humid west coast...near the water.
1.Do most of your outdoor activities in the am hours if possible . Its a good time to be lazy.
2. Keep hydrated...always have water with you when you travel anywhere even just to the store.
3.Wear a hat and/or sunglasses when outside.
4. Nothing strenuous outside after midday.
5.Do your food shopping..or any shopping early ...before noon.
6. Walk your pets morning and at night and maybe a quick jaunt during the day.
7. Keep the sun from shining in by adjusting blinds, curtains etc.
8. Ceiling fans...any fans.
And don't keep readjusting the thermostat.
9. Avoid spicey foods or heavy meals and try not to put the oven on.
10. Try not to think about it.
A toughie for you people out West.
11. Be aware of any breathing problems in humid weather.
12. Seek any shade when outside.

I'm done

FL Mary

Great list @imallears !!! Becky

Great tips, @imallears. And yes, you're right. The humidity makes it harder to bear the heat.
