That's becuase it's more humid where you live than where Everett
lives. I don't know where you live, but I know where Everett lives, and
it's a safe bet that it's more humid where you live. :)
100F in the desert can be downright comfortable; 80F and humid can
be totally miserable.
On the flip side, at equal temperatures, I suspect that our
engines cool better in the greater humidity due to heat capacity issues
from the water in the air. No?
