I’m a Canadian who hates all temperatures above 60, and I’ll tell you that humidity always matters. I had the luxury of traveling to Phoenix in July, and that was still more tolerable than anywhere that was 20 degrees cooler but 100% more humid. Heat isn’t so bad when sweating still works.
Okay, then maybe the hot and dry areas in the West aren’t as bad, as long as you have enough water. But in Texas and Florida, it regularly goes up above 105 and it’s 100 percent humidity, for long stretches of time. Basically 100 percent of the time, in Florida (and a lot of the Gulf Coast, in general).
