How do people live in 90% humidity surroundings like Florida, Venezuela, Indonesia? How can they lead normal day to day lives without going crazy?

I've experienced both dry heat and humid suffocating heat. And man, the first time you experience high humidity Florida heat, it feels like you're in a thicc stew. Walking and breathing is a struggle. I'm not fat by any means, just out of shape. But I can see why Florida man is a thing.
Las Vegas on the other hand is just dry heat. It actually feels nice and tolerable if you're just lounging doing nothing.

Not sure how they live like that, probably like winter. Go from car to building with ac most of the time. Thats what it was like in summers in California.

The evidence overwhelmingly points to the fact that they can't.

I don't know how people can't live with at least 70%. The second I got off the plane in vegas I felt like I was choking.

You just grow to adapt as with all struggles in life. Here in New York we get periods of relief with heavy thunderstorms and torrential rain. But in all honesty, I actually enjoy the challenge of the sweltering heat. I go on long bike rides in 95 degree heat (35) and 90% humidity. I also don't sleep with AC because I hate how the window units make so much noise and block natural light. It's pretty funny to see European tennis players come here in the summer and can't withstand the heat.

I walk around Florida in a hoodie and two pairs of pants you get used to it, its really breezy here too so that helps even more

very hot places attract niggers and spics. most niggers live in the south. niggers cant stand cold they want to live life as close to africa as they can. very fucking hot niggers

Floridian here. I walked 5 miles on a trail today at noon-2pm. Drank 1 liter of water.

Air conditioning dehumidifies. Outside in florida in may be 100f and 100% humidity, but inside a place with proper working ac, its not only cooler but dryer.

vegas doesnt even have a high average humidity. its a fucking desert retard. just say you cant even handle dry heat and fuck off. who the fuck brings up a desert when talking about humidity.
Dominic Miller
Dress light, A/C, avoid being outside around noon. Trees also help, urban areas here are not as deforested as 1st world big cities

We don't. Where do you think the 'Florida Man' meme came from?
Also fuck off we're full.

Where I live it is usually 85~92% humidity all summer.
Just get used to it, and understand that when you go outside you will sweat -- so have extra light clothes and changes of them and take more, but shorter, cold showers in the day. Do more of the heavy physical things in the evening and early morning.
Drink iced teas without any of that disgusting sweet trash in it.
Learn why bitter flavors can be good.
Update your diet to match.
Learn how to enjoy spicy food.
It's fine.

what's the heat index? It's been 100+ here for weeks
Evan Smith
Get used to it

I am not sure how to calculate the heat index. Typical temperatures for July are between 28 (night/morning) to 35 (daytime) with very direct sun (can cook on the sidewalk, so running barefoot only recommended on grass or early/late in the day.
For "heat index" (we don't have this in weather reporting normally) I found a US site for calculating this here wpc.ncep.noaa.gov
Shows for today at 33 degrees and 92% humidity heat index of 55 (130F) (picrel).
130? If this calculator from NOAA is correct then yes, 100+F pretty much from early June through at least mid September -- but the breeze still feels nice in the shade, though you might sweat even sitting still outside sometimes. Just have to drink a lot of water. The most annoying thing is sweating at night if you have to sleep on the porch or something, so a hammock + fan is my solution when I do that (quite pleasant then, actually -- having a fan also solves for mosquitos).
This year summer came late, for whatever reason.

They take siesta like in Spain

On this note...
When I go fishing I do it at sunrise and sunset, which is pretty pleasant, though definitely still get sweaty. When I do boat work just have to stay wet or have an overhead cover. When doing any work in the farm just have to keep long clothes on that are very "breeze blows through" type thin. And enjoy the rains when they come (you're wet anyway!). Waterproof phones and wallets are probably the most important thing.
Doing business work... wear seasonal clothes and enjoy the air conditioner, like today when I'm just programming inside and won't be outside until after 18:00 (and then sweat liters!).

Floridaman here, I fucking love it, feels like god himself is pushing down on you. Just stay hydrated and you'll be fine, bitches pay hundreds of dollars to sit in saunas, its purifying man.
