Can't stand the heat, I'm a coastal girl. The humidity also kills me. Love the flowers, and the ability to get outside without getting sopping wet from Oregon liquid sunshine. Winter is very wet here, it's okay most of the time, but it does get tiresome. I'm ready for spring, it actually didn't rain today.

I can handle up to about 85 or so if the humidity is low. Around here, though, the summer humidity rarely goes below 80-90%. And there is no breeze.

I hate the heat, and the sunburn that goes with it if I go outside. I don't know how people ever live in it constantly. I am such a houseplant, I never go out in the heat if I can help it. I am fair skinned and can feel my skin starting to burn, just in the walk to the mailbox.

Spending much time out in the heat takes away all my energy too. Really sucks.

I don't like the heat or humidity. I usually spend alot of time in indoors in the a/c. Just can't seem to be able to be outside when it's too hot or humid. My favorites season is the Fall.

I agree with humidity as an answer.

I also lived in Houston for about 7 years. Baby powder w/cornstarch became my friend. Humidity is not!!! Even up here when it gets humid my legs and feet swell!!!! The heat doesn't bother me its the humidity.

Oh when the seasons change and you get the mold outside. Not good for me at all!!

I love Spring and Summer! Seeing things green up, flowers come alive again, swimming in my pool, cook-outs with the family, sitting on the porch and chatting with neighbors. Not seeing hubby in his chair for hours at a time. LOL Winter cold is okay, but I hate the dark dreary days that seem to go on forever once Xmas is over.
