(MOBILE, Ala.) June 22 - On summer days, sunset is a moment many people wait for, but any of the folks at the Baybears game Monday will tell you-- just because the shadows grow long and the sun retreats doesn't mean the heat has called it a day.
"Its like ninety degrees out here," said Robert crawford, a Baybears fan. "It's ridiculous. We're all pouring down sweat out here. "
The National Weather Service's excessive heat warning for south Mobile and Baldwin counties continues through Tuesday evening.
"It's just disgusting," said Baybears fan Savanna Brewer. "We all want to go home and take showers. That's how hot it is. "
Even the lows can be misleading. Meteorologists say they've been in the eighties and often times that feels like the nineties. That is about ten to 15 degrees higher than the average for this time of year. Add that to high humidity and a hot pressure system that won't seem to move and you've got a pretty miserable situation.
"I mean its like what seven thirty," Crawford said, "and its still hot as can be?"
That means more time your thermostat has got to work, fewer bearable hours for outside activity and an almost equally miserable evening.
