Summer in Georgia is always hot, that’s a given! But the typical Summer weather pattern is one of both heat and humidity.
That translates into hot days, and muggy nights punctuated with late afternoon and early evening thunderstorms.
And typically that continues into October when the nights cool and the air dries out a bit. The only respite from the constant and oppressive heat is the sanctuary of the air-conditioned structure!
This kind of weather leads to jungle-like growth in the garden, and it’s hard to control unwanted weeds and volunteer plants as nearly perfect growing conditions occur. It’s a time of lush growth and various shades of the color green are everywhere!
No drought, no floods, just day after day of a tropical atmosphere that is the legendary backdrop of the Southern novel.
It’s hot, and if you don’t like it there’s only one thing that you can do about it:

And think about the harsh winter when we were asking for this kind of weather. I for one love it, though I never lived in the steamy heat of Newnan, GA.
I like steamy NJ summers!
Laura...
But we DON'T have a beautiful beach here! lol and thanks my friend.
Richard.....I like cold weather....I don't know how you southern folk can deal with the intense humidity....dry heat is fine, but the humid air is not for me!!! I'll take below zero weather.
Beautiful picture, Richard, and I LOVE the heat! I don't mind the humidity either (except for what it does to my hair). Georgia is about as far north as I ever want to go, but that is why I live in Florida!
I woke up at 5:30A this morning to go out and mow my dog yard * coolest part of the day and grass was dry enough to mow and bag.....THEN I heard the rooster next door
Good morning Richard. I look forward to your posts and this one is lovely. I wish I could jump into the picture. Have a great day.
Richard, can't say I mind hot but its the humidity I'd have a hard time with. Though, its all welcome after all the ice and snow and freezeing temperatures of this past winter which just seemed to go on and on.....
I agree...we have been having some really hot weather..don't mind it that much, unless it is really humid like it has been too!
Sounds like your weather is like....Florida! It is the price we pay for the kind winters. Now, where is that iced tea?
We have 89 and a dew point in the mid 60's. All caught up on my Real Estate until the phone rings again, so I am cutting and splitting wood. Snow will be here in a matter of weeks!
We've had more than our share of bad storms this year though.
