Well, at least our 100s are the heat index (usually--Monday and Tuesday of this week were notable exceptions) rather than the actual temperature, which is usually 97 or 98, but it's bad enough. I went for a walk tonight, and you could actually see the humidity as a watery haze in the distance. It's like stepping into a damn sauna.
Your winters sound like our winters. We get cold (20s at night, 40s during the day) for a few months, but it only snows once or twice, and usually doesn't hang around more than a couple days. (Unless it decides we need an ice storm that lasts two weeks. But that was only those two years...) But Nashville has, like, one snowplow, and maybe enough salt for some of the interstates, plus lots of hills (even worse in Knoxville), and people, including me, definitely don't know how to drive in it. Curse of the temperate climates... *g*
