This was a very interesting article. I grew up in Texas where the heat is extreme for months. I always hated the summers. The heat would last forever and it didn’t cool down much in the evening. I seemed to get a lot of headaches and tire easily in the summers when I spent time outdoors. I always wondered if the heat affected me worse than others. Reading this article has convinced me that it does!

At my age now I choose to do my outdoor activities in the early morning or early evening. We moved from from TX to TN in 2011. The summers are hot but rarely hits 100 degrees and it cools down in the evenings.

My best tip for living a full life in extreme heat is, STAY INDOORS and turn the AC to a comfortable temperature.😂

Thanks, Cindy! Those of us like me who grew up in northerly climates can learn a lot from Texas natives. :)
