soaked! The humidity is unbelievable in the Summer months in Florida. Not to mention, you could walk outside and see blue skies and ten minutes later it could be raining on you.

I live about 4.5 miles from my office and am considering buying a Segway but even with that, i could really only ride it to work in the fall and winter months. In the Summer, if it doesn't rain in the morning, it is usually raining by 5:00 PM.

A half mile doesn't sound far at all but when it is 90 degrees and 85% humidity at 8:00 in the morning, I don't know about you, but i need AC!
