Re: Is Memphis worth seeing?
holy crap. I knew it was hot up there but that's ridiculous for that area.
I looked into it further and it appears the humidity is only in the 20s and 30s most of that time.
So not sure if 105 with 30% humidity will work out better than your regular Memphis summer day of 95 with 90% humidity but I suspect it would feel closeish.
When I was in LV and it was 116 with about 5% humidity or less I thought it actually felt closeish to Memphis 97 degrees with 90% humidity which I had just left.
Anyway, Memphis will be setting a ton of records this week it appears.
The record for Aug 13 is 100, Aug 14 is 101, Aug 15 is 103.
I definitely would not be going out of my way to visit Memphis this week.
If it's a bit later this month when it is cooler, and if it's on a weekend, then a visit might go a bit better.
edit - I see that Wed when it's 106 degrees they are anticipating humidity in the 40's.
Good God.
And to think that if I was still living up there I would be outside killing myself with 2 different soccer teams.
