I hate “but its a dry heat” people. At 95, maybe. At 107, fuck you 107 is 107.

While I agree 107 is 107 and it sucks regardless, at like 30% humidity my sweat can evaporated and do it’s job of keeping me cooler, at 98% humidity your sweat has a much much harder time evaporating and it actively feels hotter. The time I spent living in Florida taught me that yes dry heat is absolutely better.

I’m perfectly aware scientifically its better, but as somebody who doesn’t live in 107 degree territory - 107 can fuck off any way you slice it. 🤣
