Got a very similar display at my house. Luckily, the temp is dropping (only 90s instead of 100s last week) and the humidity drops from 85% in the AM to 40-50% in the afternoon.

Picked it up at Lowe's and really enjoy it .
Just don't care for 99% humidity
That about says it all - that's what it feels like down here inside my garage
80 degrees and the station reads 76 %, yes it is 100% and pouring down rain
Storming now
The Humidity is the main thing I dislike about the Houston area's weather. At least back in Northern Virginia we only had a month or so of high humidity, but the 6 months or so of high humidity and temps above 80F are too much.
We got a great deal when we bought our place in Spring, TX, but I wish I'd known that had we moved 25-30 miles north of here, we'd have noticeably lower humidity!
Yeah, the 80% humidity for Austin is rare. It's because of the storms in the gulf pushing the air north from Houston. When we get winds from the north, it drops down quite a bit. Mostly in the 30-50% range for most of the year.
supposed to be 118 today, only 7:30 am and we are already at 89 - - - tomorrow gets even better with a forecast high of 120
actually its been a pretty tolerable summer - - at least the monsoons and the associated humidity have been staying off to the east which really helps
Our high for today is supposed to be 89, humidity is at 30% which is about perfect, not too dry.
well the forecasters seem to have hit the mark today they called for 118 and thats what the recorded high in Palm Springs is for today - - calling for 120 - 121 tomorrow
all time record in Palm Springs is 123 which we have hit a few times
Edit - It is now just after 6am friday and I am getting ready for my ride to work - it is already 91 degrees
we will see if we make that 121 - - or perhaps beat it
okay - I know it has to be wrong, but damn!
on my ride home just now for most of the ride my Slingshot ambient temp was around 120 to 122, buat at one intersection about 1/2 way home I looked down and the damn thing read 130!!!
never even seen it that high - - glad I'm home
as they said in Hello Vietnam its Hot its Damn Hot!
edit - just heard official high for Palm Springs made it to 122 degrees
Yeah, I note that when going slow or stopped, the temp peaks up quite a bit. I've also noticed that on the freeway it jumps about 4-5 degrees, I presume from all the other hot cars and engines travelling in the same corridor. When I stopped at the Buc-ees (gas station), it jumped about 10 degrees, but as soon as I pulled out and started moving, it dropped right back to normal air temp.
Beautiful yesterday but unfortunately we were in the truck and not slinging it. Had to travel 3 hours to Jackman Maine to do some work for my daughter on her house. Otherwise we would have been in the sling
Apple fire - it has filled our valley with smoke to go along with the extreme heat. Been a stay inside day

Stay safe FunCycle I just seen on the weather channel that the hurricane will probably make landfall in Georgetown. 😳
