Turn your oven on at 115 and stick your head in it for 24 hours. Tell me how the "Dry" heat feels? The dry heat BS is just that.....it's still fucking hot! Yea, when it gets up to 110-115 the heat index is only 110-115 but when the monsoons roll through and the humidity goes up, it sucks.

But in 365 days a year, I don't have to shovel one ounce of it.

Oh no kidding... a day or two after a monsoon rolls through the southwest is torture. BUT, it dries out after a day or two and goes back to dry. It's been over 100 for several days in a row here with average humidity (40-50%). Right now it's 107 in my back yard with a dew point of 69, that puts the heat index at 117. The record high temp in Tucson is 117 in 1990 lol.

Agreed. I did 3 years in Tucson awhile back, and while it was hot...it was MUCH easier to deal with. That whole "it's a dry heat" thing really DOES make a difference.

I'm 2.5 hours north of you right now, and we're sharing in the same pain. I heard grumblings of 111 degree heat indexes yesterday, and I believe it. It's a soul-crushing heat...especially when the air is so heavy with humidity that you can almost see it in front of you.

Give me 75 degrees and sunny...with a light breeze...all day long.

Hell...give me Baghdad heat of 122 with 4% humidity over this B.S. !!!

That's just like when I lived in Vegas, you could spend 3 hours walking the strip in 125* heat and not be bothered. Now that I'm back in Michigan the last few weeks really were unbearable. You can get sunburned real quick here too.
