I was born and reared in Upstate New York and until felt the summers hot but it wasn't the heat since most days were 75 or below. It was the very high humidity 90 and above most days. This was worsen when I lived in Virginia and even worse when I lived in Memphis. I found DesMoines warm because of the humidity but Minneapolis an absolute delight, except of course in the winter......but its a dry cold.
I survived every summer in florida until last year and the cause was the higher humidity. So for me humidity is the culprit and not so much the heat. No i wouldn't want to sit in the Arizona sun for tooo long but I had learned that in those states with high humidity one has a tendency to change shirts about three times a day.
