Don't come to the Midwest between July to September. Gets pretty nasty those months.

Not being used to it probably makes it worse. I can drive about an hour and a half towards Vancouver and I can feel the difference. Get out of the truck and the air just seems heavy and wet.

I get back in my truck and turn on the a/c. It doesn't seem half as bad if it's not hot.

Ya I guess you would. You probably notice the difference when you go somewhere where the humidity is a bunch lower.
