Moblie. I don't want to die of high temps. deneb78 are you serious?
Yuma is certainly not ideal for me... as I said summers are too hot but I would rather deal with that than have to deal with hurricanes and cold snaps in winter. I like the dryness and sunshine in Yuma. I would just need to adopt a mostly nocturnal lifestyle in summer with A/C and I'd be fine there.
Very hard choice. I think I'll go with Yuma. Winter in Yuma is much nicer than Mobile -- warmer, sunnier and far more consistent day-to-day (although Mobile is mild on average). Summer in Mobile is probably almost as bad as Yuma when you factor in the humidity -- 33 C with 22 C dew points would feel almost as bad as Yuma's dry 42 C. Plus Yuma is sunnier with a lesser risk of hurricanes.
Tough choice indeed. I may prefer Yuma on this one. I've never experienced dry heat but I know I couldn't take 33°C highs with high humidity for months on end. It was a humid 27°C here a while ago and it was unbearable. With dry heat at least sweating works.
Mobile is far superior. Nothing interesting about living in a desert. And I prefer the thunderstorms and humidity of Mobile.
