Places with lowest humidity?
Okay, I'm dying here!!! I'm in the Richmond area, and the heat & humidity are killing me! What places in the U.S. have low humidity during the summer??? This is unbearable! Thanks!!!
|
Las Vegas
Tucson Arizona Palm Springs Those are my guesses. Wherever you decide to go, let me know, I am sick of this humidity too!!! |
Hello from Northwest Montana. Temp today was 78degrees with humidity at 18percent. Tonights low will be 46degrees. Sleep with windows open and 2 blankets. Ideal? We think so!!! |
Upper Michigan, especially Macinac (sp?) Island, might tempt you.
|
I'm with John, but would expand the area to the Pacific NW, including Seattle and Portland. The weather in the summers here is ideal.
|
Nevada is the driest state with Utah the second driest, so my vote is Utah and Nevada. You do notice the lack of humidity but you also notice small animals combusting into flames before your eyes when its 118 degrees!! :)
|
Probably the best place I have found for low humidity and decent (actually near-perfect) temperatures would be San Diego. Nice city also!!
|
Being from Texas, I feel for you. We head to Montana every summer to escape the heat and humudity. The drawback is that my face starts looking years older from the dryness.
|
Colorado! Seventy eight degrees today, sunny blue skies, crystal clear views of the Rockies. Only drawback is the lack of water for boating, skiing, swimming, etc. but hey, I'll who needs it when the weather is this nice?
|
The Canadian Rockies. Calgary, Banff, Jaspar. Perfect vacation spot in August. Cool mornings and evenings. Perfect sleeping weather, like the mid-Fall in NYC.
|
I LOVE humidity! When I go to Las Vegas my skin gets dry and my nose bleeds. I am leaving this week for the Philippines and am looking forward to the humidity!
|
Sorry-I went off on a tangent. San Francisco has very little humidity!
|
Flagstaff Arizona is low humidity, rarely above 82 in summer and beautiful
|
To Montana & Colorado respondents:
I hate you. |
Any more suggestions?
Thanks |
dln, the island is spelled Mackinac.
Mackinac Island in the Straits, or Mackinaw City 9 miles away at the northern most point in Michigan's lower penninusla rarely go above 80 degrees and have low humidity. Be sure you take a jacket for the evenings. Keith |
Hello from San Diego!
I spent my freshman year of college in Boston. I thought I had woken up in hell the first time I experienced east coast 'humidity'. I had grown up in San Diego and had never encountered anything like it! San Diego, Los Angeles, San Francisco, NO Humidity! |
Denver and the Colorado Rockies. I have lotion in every room of the house and chapstick in every pocket! I can fill my humidifier 3 times a day. I wonder why there aren't rain clouds in my house!
|
Las Vegas, anywhere in Arizona, and Palm Desert or Palm Springs in California. San Francisco actually is relatively humid especially n the summer because of teh persistent fog. Whenever fog develops the hunidity is around 100%.
|
Just returned from Mackinac Island and it was heavenly! Beautiful sunny warm days, cool evenings.
I can't wait to go back again - someday! Here in the real world (Ohio) it is hot and humid (but not as hot as Texas, our former residence!) |
