������It's all about humidity. Talking about heat without that is kinda pointless unless you're baking something.
I've lived many, many, many places. A bonus I have is, with military experience, I have a baseline wherein I can talk about many of those places knowing I was wearing basically the same clothing. Ie, I can avoid the nonsense of saying Chicago is fine in March (while wearing several layers and a hood) while talking about how chilly Seattle is during the same time frame (because we're all wearing hoodies there).
With that said, Chicago gets pretty hot. Not unbearable, but certainly uncomfortable. It's not Doha in August but then again no place in the US is. The worst climates I've ever lived in are South Korea and Chicago. Worst combo of hot and cold. The best is Hawaii.
But to bring it back to the topic, parts of Texas are barely fucking better. I've spent too much time in San Angelo and it's a fucking pit for all things: culture, lifestyle, and yes, climate.
