I spent years growing up and going to school in Tempe, AZ. It was very hot in the summer but not humid most of the time until the rains came in August. That dry heat made it tolerable most of the spring, summer and fall without air-conditioning but an evaporative or water cooler was mandatory.

But when my wife and I retired, we moved to our cattle farm in Florida to get out of the big city. We have been here almost 5 years now and there is absolutely no way I could live here in the summer without air conditioning. The reason? The heat combined with the high humidity. An evaporative cooler is not effective here for cooling because of the humidity.

I would divorce my wife and move to Timbuktu before I would stay here in the summer without some way to cool off. Sleeping at night would be impossible. There are days in the summer that are absolutely intolerable outdoors. Insufferable.

Same as in Texas. We are not doing without air conditioning and Obama will never get our air conditioner.
