Oh yeah!!! August is the WORST month for weather as far as heat and humidity goes. I'm a desert rat and I can deal with extreme heat, but when the humidity rolls around, it's like a living hell.

Unfortunately, it's no trick. I wish it were, because I live here full-time and have to work, which doesn't give me the "luxury" of fleeing the area like a snowbird during the undesireable times of year. On the bright side, some days in August are not humid, or are tolerably humid.

When you say humid, how bad is it really? Are we talking North Carolina style humid? Since it is the desert, does maybe a bit of humid feel like lots?

I've only been to NC once, when I was about 10 or 11 years old, so I don't know. But I do know that having lived in the desert for over 15 years and being used to hot, dry desert weather, when it gets humid it's definitely hot and sticky and out of the norm. Pretty miserable. But I will say that I lived in TX for a short period of time and the humidity in the desert is nothing like the humidity in TX.

*Heads up, fellow desert rats ... the news is reporting another 65 mph+ windstorm to blow through here again today!

Not even close to NC levels of humidity.

I used to live in PS, and was just getting ready to write that "it is a dry heat" in the summer and the rest of the year. However, I saw the comments about how "humid" it is in August. You haven't been in humd weather until you've been in Washington DC, parts of the south and parts of the midwest.

Palm Springs never gets 1/1,000,000th as humid as Florida or NC. No possible way! I lived in Palm Springs for several years and it is almost never humid.
