I hated how humid it was when I lived in DC. Only place I've ever lived I had to take off a jacket in 45 degree weather because I was sweating too much.

That doesn't convince me Pittsburgh's humidity isn't bad. It convinces me to not live in VA.

I'm not been a fan of it lately actually, way too humid for my tastes. The weather the past 2 weeks feels like Groundhog Day in a way.

It's not VA or FL (or Sydney summer) humid here, but certainly after it's rained and the sun comes out - phew!! Makes for some drippy running and biking, that's for sure ...

then I suggest Alaska if you wish ti avoid it

I find this humidity not as "humid" so to speak. 99% here is like 30-40% down there. I went out for a nice walk, did some shopping on baum and hiked home until I could catch the bus back.

now walk into my apartment and you think you are in southern florida its 98 with 86% humidity. Hot and humid. Only turn the ac on in rooms im in, which is bedroom or pc room.

It's been cloudy lately but I've totally been digging this nice weather recently. Humid or not, if I see some sun I am happy.

There are many places that aren't humid. I wouldn't like Arizona, but I love the West Coast. I never sweat when I'm there.

I love clouds and rain. Unfortunately, the rain brings the humidity.

I've never been to Alaska but a buddy of mine who's a native said it is humid in summer. This seems to confirm that:

Average Summer Humidity by USA State - Current Results

No Pittsburgh in list, and head to the north western high deserts for low humidity in summer.

Ummm.... this is a common running problem for both men and women. You don't need some special shirt. Common remedy is putting Vaseline on the nipples to prevent friction burns.
