CHARLESTON, S.C. — The hallmarks of summer include the shining sun and stifling heat and humidity.
“It is getting hotter. Absolutely,” said Mark Wilbert, a senior policy adviser on resilience for the Mayor’s Office in Charleston, South Carolina.
No one knows heat and humidity quite like the South, and Charleston is a place that is no stranger to hot summers.
Over at The Citadel, a military college in Charleston, Lt. Col. Scott Curtis monitors data from this outdoor weather station every day.
“With Charleston being surrounded on all sides by water, we have really high humidity as well,” said Lt. Col. Curtis, who is director of The Citadel’s Near Center for Climate Studies.
