Phoenix has been pretty humid on and off this past week. I walk outside and I am instantly covered in sweat.

I go for the desert, Kingman or Bhc or Mohave Valley. I live in Missouri and there are days to which the humidity can get over 100% and then have it be in the 90s. I have seen winters with humidity being at 50 to 100%. No give me the desert and a 3 bed and 2 bath home. Come on by and we will have a bbq.

The heat is livable. It is not too hot for kids to play outside.
I lived in Phoenix for a number of years. I went from the air conditioned house to the air conditioned car to the air conditioned store, etc. However, for being outside, night time is the right time in Phoenix. I spent all my outside time after the sun went down and it was fantastic.

One thing you learn early on, is that you never go barefoot on hot asphalt (and you put a blanket over leather/pleather seats in your car.

Arizona baby!!! I will be looking around December for a home and job. For under $300,000 I can seriously get a really nice home. My parents are Americans and are moving to AZ in October. People move to Vancouver and think it is the cat's meow. We have serious crime, drug addiction, homelessness, rain maybe 8 or 9 months of the year, a huge homosexual population which makes it hard for us heteros to find a suitable partner. People in Vancouver are grouchy, stuck up and generally unfriendly. So yeah....Arizona.

not true the heat is a killer did you see last nights news? about the boy who just died because he was out hiking in this heat? i have been in this horrible stuff for 5 yrs now and still am not use to it. not everyone can take the heat i can not. now on the other hand some people can get use to it and love it but you do need to be careful in it.
