NO I love the 90* heat. The 110* crap is for the alligators and other sorted cooled blood creatures. You know I am still seeing fools jogging at high noon! WTH? Why? Whats wrong with 5am?
I would just love a big thunderstorm. Or a three day rain. Or a cloud.

Where in Fl are you? We haven't seen much rain here on the west coast since the end of May. All the rain now seems to be in the center of the state.
I'm on my bike as soon as it's light so even with a 30 miler I'm home no later than 9:30. Even I don't understand those that wait until afternoon now to exercise???
