Worst I can remember was when I got transferred to St Louis. I arrived around the 10th of July to about 40 days in a row of high temps near 100 with 90% humidity
And come January we had over a month that it never got warmer than the 20's with 30-40 mph winds on the river,
Misery
is the right name for that place.
A little of topic but when I was in Missouri my GPS would pronounce Missouri....Misery!! :B
I was a petty officer in the Coast Guard back then and transferred often. Slinging bouys on the western rivers up there was miserable. In most parts of the country you get either a mild summer or winter, There both were horrible, at least in 1983 and 84.
And yes, your GPS knew something.
