and the air was heavy.

Of course, humidity is relative. I grew up in Kentucky and lived in Nashville. The humidity and the temperature are often within just a few degrees of one another.

Try 90 degrees with 85% humidity; it is like walking into a wall. However, it really cools down at night, unlike here in Texas. We often had fog over all the ponds and streams (beautiful in the moonlight) and heavy dew in the mornings.

Great for crops, too.
