There was a tourist couple from Phoenix in my neighborhood pizza shop recently, and they were telling the local guy working the counter that it was 112 degrees in AZ that day...and he sincerely responded, "Oh, but it's a dry heat!"

We laughed and laughed and laughed.

It is very different than a humid heat. When we were in Death Valley hiking and it was over a hundred it was NOTHING like a hundred in FL. MUCH easier to deal with.
