Which part? I think it gets grosser near the Redlands since you get the mugginess of the glades + less cooling from the ocean. Late July through early August can stabilize around 95, maybe 20% of the days were like that when I lived in Homestead, FL. The other days around that time like 85-92 F w/ 80% humidity. But I guess you're right -- I've had friends heat stroke after 2-3 hrs of unshaded exposure when it hits ~92+ i.e. soccer pickup games. Shade will carry you a long way, even without AC though -- I have extended family in La Guajira that still lives like this.

Ah, yeah, I can totally see that. I grew up in the South Miami / Coral Gables / Coconut Grove areas...divorced parents so I was all over the place. I did always consider Homestead to be a sweltering swamp with desert heat. Going out there in the summer was always a nice way to get dripping with sweat. :P > But I guess you're right -- I've had friends heat stroke after 2-3 hrs of unshaded exposure when it hits ~92+ i.e. soccer pickup games.

Oof...yep, same experience, especially when the sun isn't occluded by clouds. It's gnarly.
