My GAWD that's even way hotter weather than Mexico. 5/3 and it'll be 93+ degrees all week.

I prefer humidity over dry heat. Dry heat will suck the life out of you.

At some point it doesn't matter. 120 fricking sucks with no humidity.

Typically I would say South Louisiana/Texas Gulf Coast up through central mississippi, alabama, and georgia have it the most miserable. The worst of the worst are the areas just far enough from the coast to not get the Seabreeze but get loaded up with the humid.

Ehhh. You can always just drink water though. When I lived in East Texas you'd just sweat it out but once into more humid places like north AL and central MS the humidity just killed you.

I thought so too until I got to Alabama.

Houston is awful too.

Not discrediting Texas heat. I'm certain it's awful. Different heats though.

Dry heat I can seem to handle more so than the sticky, sweaty humid heat.

I strongly prefer the dry heat of West TX/ Hill Country TX to the humid heat of Houston/East TX/South LA

College Station heat ain't no dry heat that's for sure. Hot as frick, and humid as hell.

The frick?

The Gulf Coast from Houston to New Orleans is the most humid place in America.

Houston, New Orleans, and Baton Rouge came to mind specifically when I typed that.

Hottest I've ever been... About 113 degrees near Paris, Texas.

Coldest I've ever been... North of Amarillo, Texas. It was right around 0 degrees, but the wind was blowing like 40 mph. I've been in colder temperatures, but that wind was brutal.
