I've lived in Arizona where it got 120 without AC For now this is warm but it does get a bit hot midday

It's a dry heat. Except for Houston. Houston heat is miserable.

Hey, I'm not ragging on the city, but you folks are so close to the Gulf that the humidity during summer is utterly insane! Having done both and if it was just about the weather, I'd rather spend summer in El Paso than in Houston. City-wise? Houston > El Paso. Heat+Humidity? Even El Paso (which is brutal) is easier to tolerate than a Houston summer. Plus, El Paso doesn't have the hurricane risk of Houston.

All of that true and I understood exactly what you meant. I actually don't technically live in Houston though. I was born there and lived there till about the 6th grade but I still go visit my mom several times out of the yeAr.

Either way it's hot, that's the only thing i don't like here.

When I moved North of Dallas I was told "oh, you are gonna hate our summers. They are SO hot!" And yes, it did top 100 plenty of times, but the breeze never stopped and the humidity was much lower than what I was used to. 100+ in Dallas is better than 95 in South Florida. To me, miserable hot is when your glasses fog up when you get out of your car or when you are drenched in sweat just walking from the parking lot to your place of work. That was normal in FL during the summer, but with the lower humidity here? Even though the temp is higher, it's not nearly as miserable.

Good point, you win.
