"It's a dry heat"
We were snowbirds out west for about 15 years. We had a winter house in Lake Havasu City AZ for most of that, but we would spend a few weeks there in the summer also. When we decided to settle in one location, we chose FL. We can handle the summer weather here better than the hot areas of AZ. Yeah, we sweat a lot when doing outdoor activities here, but at least we can be outdoors. In AZ when it is 110-115 for days on end you cannot even be outside after 9 or 10am. Once in a while it hits 120 degrees and the relative humidity near zero. Sure, a lot of people live in Lake Havasu, but you don't see many of them running around outside during the summer afternoons. At some point, usually in June, I would turn the water heater tank off because the cold tap water was hot enough to shower in. lol
The local joke was, "What are there more of, air conditioner techs or dermatologists?"
