Going out back for some practice Ruger LC45 carbine, various ammo, in about 30 minutes. As of this writing the humidity is 100%, Temp is 72deg F. No wind. Should be able to see the hole in the water.

Hey Gunny, about the same here a little north of ya.
Was 72 when I got up, it's now 75 with 93% humidity and a 1 mph breeze.
Enjoy the range session.
I just might do a little dinger ringing here shortly myself.

I don’t know how you folks can stand that humidity. But I guess you get used to it. I noticed when I went to bed the humidity was 18%. That’s pretty low for us but it was a hot day.
Glad you are able to get out and shoot in those “swimming pools”.

Not sure you really get used to it.
Just kinda grin and bare it.
Kinda like how do some bare all that darn cold up north.
I prefer to sweat father than freeze.

I don’t see how you can stand 18% humidity. That dry and I would be constantly dehydrated.

As I said, thick. Dew point right now is 74deg. Temp 81. RH78. Changes quickly once the sun is up good, but it's another hot sticky day.

Oops. Oh well, at least you've got a point of comparison now.
