Not really. I know when it's humid, but it doesn't really effect me. I am a very healthy person and grew up being outside. So to answer your question, no I am really not effected by humidity.

It is HOT right now. Feels like July or August. It might really hit 90 degrees today.

At least it's not snowing.

88F with a dew point of 70. Heat index in the low 90's. Uck. Its too early in the year to be this hot and muggy. All of my tulips are wilting and dying
I agree with northstar though, I will take this over winter weather. The frozen tundra has thawed out.

And the summers are awesome. Humidity? I've never been effected, it's not that bad. If you want humidity go to Houston or Atlanta. And buggy? There's Metropolitan Mosquito Patrol, pretty much has eliminated horrible mosquitos..
Actually, Minneapolis sees Houston- or Atlanta (which isn't even that hot in the summer) like dewpoints somewhat frequently many summers. Dewpoints of 80F or above, which are rare anywhere in the U.S., have occurred in Minnesota and Minneapolis more specifically.

Most of the trees around here have leaves on them. When I was in Chaska the other day, most had leaves on them. Where are you at?

We're getting there but this is a slow spring. My maples are just starting to leaf out now, so give it a month and things will be filled in nicely.

I'm not sure which areas experience which dewpoints relative to others, but Minnesota has among the most comfortable of the humid continental climates by a long shot. Hotlanta summers were a whole different ballgame and St. Louis was even worse. I grew up in Iowa and summer days in MSP rarely approach that level of sweltering heat and humidity. Which I enjoy, incidentally. In my mind, the perfect climate is found in Ft. Lauderdale, or in Cuba. In a warm year, Minnesota has unbeatable summer weather. In a cool year it's just depressing.
