I don't care what anyone tells me. There is definitely a difference between wet and dry heat. Some people have laughed at me when I made the comment, "Well, at least it's a dry heat." Can't people feel the difference?
I've been down south, in Atlanta, Orlando and Myrtle Beach. I've also been to parts of California and Las Vegas. Heck, people in Nebraska get the best (or worst) of both worlds. If I walk outside on a hot dry day, I can still breathe. Yeah, it's hot, but I can stay outside for a while, sweat and then come back in to cool off. On a hot muggy day, I can't be outside for an extended period of time. Right when I step outside, I start to sweat and breathe heavily.
Just today, it was muggy for a while in the afternoon. I took my two dogs for a short walk and they had their tongues hanging out after a couple minutes. It wasn't too hot either, around 77 degrees, but with 50% humidity. It felt much warmer than 77, more like 85 or so. Not long later, as a storm moved in, I stepped outside and while it was still around 75, it actually felt 70-75.
If anyone wants to argue. Go spend a week in San Diego and then go spend a week in New Orleans. If a person does that and can't feel any difference whatsoever, then they have some major problems.
