We had tremendous storms Wednesday evening and again last night (Thursday night). Thursday's storms left water in my basement this morning (and we have to get a LOT of rain to get water in our basement, so I guess we got a lot). Very little change in the heat or humidity, though.

Water in the basement is not good. I remember that well from my days back in Ohio. Perhaps your weather will break soon; we are, after all, almost into September.
Becca and I ran into a friend of ours on the trail today (Friday), and he talked about this being one of the most uncomfortable summers he could recall, and he's a native of this area.
