the fact that you have such a high humidity in a desert is to me a crime
against the environment but i'm not going to get on my soap box and rant
against the insanity of phoenix requiring people to grow lawns...

we have had 100% humidity and temperatures above 90F on long island -
further south that is much more common and with higher temperatures. I have
tried to convince my spouse that 120 in southern california is far cooler
than what we get here and that it is all about the humidity. he won't buy
it. in the desert when you sweat it cools you off - out here it just
increases your misery. i feel so sorry for my fish when the water gets too
warm. i envy you your 10%.

How's it feel to be so humid? If we get above 10% here in Phoenix during
May-Aug we feel sticky. Aug-Sept we get the "Monsoon" season and can
reach as high as 25%-35%.
