    I lived in Phoenix for a while, 05-08ish. I grew up and live in Florida now. The difference really is the “dry heat” that everybody treats as the big joke. You can still sweat in 125 and dry air. 125 in humid air doesn’t let you sweat.

      Yeah someone always comes out the Woodworks from Phoenix to tell everyone how they’re babies. Once we start hitting more high wet bulb temps everyone’s fucked.

      Where in Florida‽ In South Florida the last couple of weeks have been awful and the Coral is dead. But the one cloudy day was manageable.
