If you want to find unbearable heat and humidity, NYC for sure, and if you want somewhere with low humidity and pleasant temps, Gatlinburg. (Summer)
If you want to find extremely bitter cold and snow, go for minneapolis, if your looking for no snow and pleasant temps key west or hawaii. (Winter)
Gatlinburg has "low humidity"? LMBO Ive heard it all now!!! Gatlinburg is a most definitely humid. Not quite as bad as Memphis because of the cooler temps and elevation, but its most definitely a humid place. VERY humid. Unbearable heat and humidity in NYC???? Sure, a day or two here and there. But NYC's most extreme summer temps are average in places like Houston, etc. No comparo, amigo.
Summer: Chicago (tons of street fairs and festivals and of course, the lake!)
Winter: Los Angeles (sunny most days...low humidity...cool at night but 65-70 during the day)
Best cities to visit in the summer if you're trying to get away from the uncomfortably humid areas: Salt Lake City, Denver, Seattle, Chicago, Boston, Niagara Falls, Detroit, Minneapolis, Buffalo
Best cities to visit in the winter if you are trying to get away from the snow & cold: Phoenix, Los Angeles, San Diego, Miami, Key West, Orlando.
Best cities to visit if you want to experience the true winter cold & snow: Buffalo, Denver, Burlington, Chicago, Minneapolis, Fargo
Quite a few choices, but I thought I'd mix it up a bit. In all honesty, I prefer going north during the winter.
