Which do you think would feel hotter in summer?

[animalcrazy]

I remember when I moved back from California and hit the humidity in Nebraska. It was awful. The humidity makes it feel hotter. I can't tolerate Florida in the summer.

It's not going o be much better here today with a high of 92 and high dew points. Ugh! I want snow. How many days until winter?

I didn't even have to look at the climates to know the answer to this one. Florida is almost always going to feel hotter because of the humidity.

I'll take places like Phoenix with its dry heat at 115 over anywhere in the deep south at 85+.

85 F, even with an 85 F dew point, is a heat index much lower than 115 F (108 F).

I do live in Phoenix, and the Texas Triangle is the worst I've experienced

"Even today?"
Today is a pretty unusual weather pattern for June. Baltimore just had one of its coolest June nights in several years. Dewpoints in the mid 50s in Macon, GA, in June...rare.

Dry heat feels like when you open an oven, plus the sun feels stronger. Humid heat just feels, idk, Humid lol.

Lol I know, I'm parodying all those people who exaggerate their climates and then when presented with actual data they use the lame rhetoric "you don't live here, you wouldn't know".
