I don't recall it feeling like this even last August - at least for this
long.

It wasn't too bad early yesterday when there was a strong breeze, even
though the temperature was climbing rapidly, but as soon as the front
came in the wind died. That wasn't enough fall in temperature to
compensate for the rise in humidity though.

I can tell you if I win the lottery, air conditioning will be top of my
shopping list!
