First thought was Valdosta area, though not necessarily there. Yessir, quite hot and I believe very humid.
I believe it pretty well accepted that AC is a need, not a want, in what one would call The South. I hope this is not a controversial statement, some do love the heat, but. The humidity!
Your statement isn’t controversial with me. It’s rough right now. We need rain badly. The gnats around here add to the misery.
