<div class="bbWrapper">I was just in Scottsdale two weeks ago. I am planning to visit one more time before I move hopefully during the summit event assuming it will be in Feb. <br /> <br /> The heat didn&#039;t bother me. It was like 110 the first day which was a little hotter than I&#039;m used too and the other days were like 104. Completely tolerable IMO. I would compare 110 in Scottsdale to like 95 in So FL, maybe even slightly more comfortable. It was slightly interesting driving with the windows down at 9pm and its 103 out and it feels ridiculous. <br /> <br /> I see it was 120 there this weekend. That would have been interesting to experience.<br /> <br /> Absolutely love Scottsdale so far and Arizona in general.</div>

Lets take somewhere like Clearwater. Right now you are looking at 70+% humidity everyday with temps at about 90. That to me is worse weather in comparison. The big downside is that you get no reprieve. At night it drops only to the high 70s while still being very humid. Then the daily thunderstorms. <br /> <br /> 100+ degree will always be hot. The same as 70% humidity will always be awful and draining. <br /> <br /> Say you live in Phoenix and want a bit of a break, take a couple hour drive to the mountains like Flagstaff and have much different temps. In FL if you want a big of a change you can take a quick trip to....I dunno, Virginia to get a different climate? <img src="/community/imgs/emoticons/em-smile2.png" class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":)" title="Smile :)" data-shortname=":)" /></div>

<div class="bbWrapper">AZ pro tip: good undershirts. I wear the uniqlo airism ones almost everyday; file under: things you get excited about when you get older.<br /> <br /> Also, we&#039;ve become semi-sunbirds and head up to seal beach area for most of july to take the edge off. But it&#039;s hard to complain about the 2-3 months of heat when we get the other 9 months of great weather+minimal BS.</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">This was a pretty entertaining thread, read it from beginning to end, lol. Oddly enough this is my first post even though I&#039;ve been spending probably 5+ hours a day on here since I signed up last week.<br /> <br /> Last year I spent 3 months (July-Sept) in Scottsdale and it was humid as hell, everyone is saying dry heat but it was miserable at times. I&#039;d go out on my balcony and be sweaty/sticky in a few minutes. I&#039;m from the bay area so I&#039;m used to different heat but I also lived in Hawaii for 3 years, was humid but not as bad as Scottsdale. It wasn&#039;t the heat that killed me, that I could live with, but just that damn humidity. I spent a year in Iraq, AZ heat was nothing compared to that, but I&#039;d still rather spend a summer in Iraq then AZ! AZ felt like a blowdryer in your face while sitting in a sauna, while Iraq was more like letting your oven heat up to 450 and opening it up on your face. I&#039;d walk a 1/4 mile in AZ to the store in shorts/t-shirt and have some major swamp a$$ while feeling suffocated/sticky as hell, but could walk 12 miles in Iraq wearing full combat gear (Boots/Pants/Jacket/Helmet/Gloves/75+ LB&#039;s of other gear) and just be sweating my a$$ off, could still breath though, lol.<br /> <br /> As you can tell, I am not a fan of the Scottsdale weather, I was always told it is dry heat but I don&#039;t know maybe I was just there at a bad time? Other then that it was beautiful though. Everything seemed new, the roads were very nice and clean, and you pretty much have everything you&#039;d ever want to do in a very close proximity.</div>
