Way, way too hot!

Resorting to watching Utube snowmo videos....lately several times per day.

I get NO relief by sitting on my snowmobile never mind starting it up and letting it run.

Humidity that you can cut with a knife.

Last night I watched some polar bears on PBS slide around on ice and I was actually envious.

Grass that crackles under your feet.....wind so hot it does not bring relief.

Bring on an ice age.....it can't be this bad!

Sorry Nash...but if THIS is what YOU have to live with MOST of the time...you are certifiable!

Give me 18 below any day of the week!

You can only take off so many clothes to cool off before getting arrested
I would rather bundle up any day

Compare the Dew Point and Humidity values shown above to what you're seeing. It's the humidity that's killing ya, not the temperature. Oh, and these values are from a day in the heart of our summer monsoon — the most humid season of the year in AZ.

I'll betcha you're not seeing Relative Humidity values below 28% (or Dew Point values below 55°F)! Like South Haven, MI, with peak Relative Humidity values in the high 90% range and Dew Point temperatures in the mid 70s on the same day! :cool:

I agree. I was there in first week in April 2012 and it was hot. Though it was bearable sleeping in a rental car under the PHX Sky Harbor parking deck @ 4:30 am with windows up. I did get a couple hrs sleep. Next nite was at pool Hotel.
