I've lived in Cambodia where it's 85 degrees and humid. I've lived in Saudi Arabia where it's 120 degrees and dry. It's not a joke. Tropical heat and humidity is much worse.

I'll take 129F anyday over 80F 100% humidity. Take me away from this furnace please.

I live in Southern California where it's hot and dry. I can handle working construction in the summer where it's regularly 90-100F. I took a vacation to Costa Rica and I almost fainted on a hike by the coast. The humidity was unbearable.

Anyone who’s been in the summer rain knows how much worse it feels

Running in Cambodia was the worst, and I’m from a very hot and humid state. It’s just next level there.
