You can certainly tell that the humidity is up. I put anti-persperant on not even five minutes ago, and I'm already sweating. I don't think I'll ever get used to humidity. I truly believe that your body is tuned into the climate of wherever you grew up, and it just doesn't know how to handle anything different.

For example:

I sweat like crazy and feel like I'm going to melt into a puddle whenever I get into high humidity locales, and I feel like I'm going to freeze to death whenever the temperature drops below 30.

However, a friend of mine grew up in Iowa City where it is VERY humid. He went down to south central Kansas to help with a wheat harvesting operation for a month or so a couple years ago, and he was continually getting nosebleeds because the air was so dry.

It's all in where you came from. I swear it.

When I was in El Paso, for the first few weeks/months I was there, I would wake up with blood in my nose and it was constantly there. Not so much nosebleeds though. It'll probably happen again when I get back because I've been gone for so long.

I totally agree that your body is tuned to the temp of where you grew up and cant/refuses to get used to something else.
