yeah i used to hear this all the time in sacramento too, since it's also the unreasonably hot valley of its respective state as well

i'd rather have heat from high humidity because then at least you know it'll cloud over later as a result and cool down (and possibly thunderstorm fuck yeah)

dude you do not want humidity. last week here it was in the 90's with 90%+ humidity so the heat index was like 106

Dry heat doesn't ruin shit after a sudden temp drop and everything condenses

I carry a frog tog when I venture outside for a while and it's pretty handy

YPrrrr

Inarguably equal heat with humidity is worse.

But it's a joke when somewhere with 80 degrees and 80% humidity thinks it's more unbearable than 115 with 20%.

I think the biggest difference is like david said. In the desert you have 110+ degrees pretty much for 120+ days straight. In humid regions it sucks balls, deeper south esp, but you get rainy cool days to have a reprieve

I'll take 115 for a day over 95 with 80% humidity but Minnesota and Massachusetts ARE OUT OF THEIR ELEMENT
