I've lived in the hotter parts of CA for most of my life, with occasional trips to central MO in the summer to visit family. The only thing that actually works is wet swimwear. Jump in the pool, pond, creek, get cool, get out, don't dry off. Wear that shit for the next 4 hours. Repeat.
I've concluded that DJSapp was never DJSapp, and Not DJSapp is also not DJSapp, so that means he's telling the truth now and he was lying before.

I'll give ya Houston and NO, but not Chas. TN heat is brutal river valley swamp heat and 90-100s temps where the air doesn't move - it just sits in the Tennessee or Cumberland River valleys for 5-8 months at a time. Same for the Ohio Valley. I'll take low country heat every day of the week and twice on Sundays over TN heat. Originally Posted by MARSHALL TUCKER

If you want to get all competitive about it, there's nothing like the heat and humidity I experienced in Korea where I couldn't dry myself off with a towel because of how humid it was after taking a shower in the hostel I was staying in. Also, TN heat is no joke as BMills said. When the scorching sun comes out and there is zero air movement, it is just unbearable, and I've spent a decent amount of time in Houston, where it is also atrocious.

on a given day lowcountry 3 degrees or more hotter on average than Atl/Nashville. Beleive if you look at averages you'll see that's pretty accurate. Average last two weeks nashville 91.6 lowcountry (Santee) 95.9. Either plenty hot...

Nice thing about ATL and low country is that the air moves being on the Piedmont and coast respectfully.
The only air movement in a TN summer is what comes out of Al Gore's blowhole

Protip: Carry a Big Gulp full of ice in your lap when you're driving. That way, your dog can bury her face in there and survive the trip to someplace where there's enough water to lay in.

OP, sometimes when it's over 90 or so I run a sleeveless shirt vs. a regular tshirt. Try to avoid wool in the summer. outside of that never much thought about it.
Newsflash. HHI is on the coast. Not the "lowcountry." Originally Posted by BmillsSkier
