Humid heat vs. dry heat, which is worse?

Man I just got done with practice and its a muggy humid heat today, I hate the heat period, but I would rather have some dry ass desert arid heat than the humid heat conditions of today. The humidity gets you all tired, makes you feel greasy,and you have to take 30 showers cause you sweat so profusely! I would much rather have it be 105 degrees with no humidity than 90 degrees with hellified humidity any day. What about you?

Carpenters bend wood, fletchers bend arrows, wise men fashion themselves.

Don't Talk About It, Be About It!

hokie	Ugh...humidity SUCKS. I would much rather be in dry heat. When I lived in OK it got hot as hell, but it was dry heat and was much more tolerable even though it was 115 degrees out. Humidity makes you feel like you can't breathe. No need to get anyone else's opinion. I'm right on this one.

calldapplwonde ry83	Yes, humid heat is definitely worse because the body cannot evaporate as much sweat to cool off because of, you know, the higher humidity.

JessieJ	Whether it's cold or hot, humidity makes my hair super big. Therefore, humid heat is much worse!

Fauxie	Rainy season here and I hear ya! I'd rather it be 37 degrees in the hot season with bright sunshine and a nice breeze than 34 degrees, overcast skies and a horrible, muggy air that sucks all your energy away.
