No doubt....I completely disagree with you on this anyway...Phoenix summer is WAY worse than Houston....and Yuma is just downright rediculous....I've lived in both...

as far as the hottest, i would have to rank them like this Houston > North Carolina > Yuma/Phoenix > San Antonio > San Diego i've never lived in Dallas, but i consider it my second home. when i drove up @ 6 weeks ago it felt great. with only 20% humidity you don't really feel the high temps. even my little brother visited from Dallas a couple weeks ago and said it wasn't as hot in Dallas (and he works at a car dealership so he's outside all the time). and that kid has lived in Dallas for over a year. you can CLEARLY tell where it's hotter. |

On the hottest day in Houston with really high humidity, I'll give you it's as bad as anywhere. But the summer as a whole is soooooo much worse in the desert (Phoenix, Yuma, Vegas). It's soooo damn hot every damn day for 5 months with no rain at all. You never get a break from it. I'm sorry but hot is hot and the body doesn't even know what a heat index is. It knows what the actual temperature is. And in the desert, it's nothing to reach 110+ daily. If you play sports outside all day, it's brutal on the body. I've played outside all day in both....100+ with the highest humidity possible and 110+ and I could barely walk after playing in the 110+ vs. the humidity. The humidity is annoying for sure but it's no match.
I grew up around Dallas and I don't know where you're getting your data from but Dallas avg's almost as high humidity as Houston. It's absolutely not dry there. Right now, Dallas is experiencing a way worse summer than Houston is. I've been to the Middle East desert 8 times. Saudi Arabia was a VERY dry heat but it was 115+ every day and that summer is WAY worse than any of the places we're speaking of. I know a lot of people just hate humidity and it is annoying and makes you miserable. I thought the same way as you before I experienced the constant hot ass summers of the desert. I guess we can agree to disagree. Maybe because I don't mind humidity as much as you do obviously. It's better for you too. I had constant nose bleeds in that dry ass shit too. And the other thing is that in humid places (the temperatures get lower at night). In places like Phoenix, the temperature can be over 100 through the night). And it's like that EVERY SINGLE summer. Some summers out here aren't so bad. If we get some rain (like we're supposed to), it's not that bad.

Yuma and Pheonix get more rained COMBINED than the whole state of Texas. it's rained a total of 4 times in Houston since February. it's so dry here that the fish have sprouted legs and grown lungs so that they can actually live here. Quote:
are you honestly telling me that Dallas has as much humidity as Houston !??! i'm SMFH right now..... go back and check my last 20 posts in this thread. you see a difference of 20-30% in humidty from Houston to Dallas !?!? in Houston we were taught that a 20-30 point difference is not the same on Halloween Dallas will be in the mid 50's while Houston will still be in the mid to upper 80's. it's hotter than a whore house on "nickle night"......and it's only August 9th. you'll see heat indexes in Houston in the 100's throughout the end of September.... |

You realize you posted deviation from normal, right? According to the gospel of Wiki, Houston averages 54 inches of rain a year over 99 days, while Yuma gets a stunning 3.01" per year. How's your argument going?
