Someone just got back from Florida and acknowledges the humidity is worse up here. Lack of wind and Soil type make it intolerable. But they make good points about the sun at that latitude and the nights not dropping like we do.

The weather down there is hilarious. And I'll agree with Camb, the humidity feels worse up here .

Springfield winds 3mph. Westfield winds Calm. How often is the breeze and what speed? I'm not talking about under 7mph. That wouldn't make humidity tolerable. I'm talking about wind over 7mph not gusts. An actual breeze and not once every 20 minutes either. Whats the average wind speed?
Map with current dew points. Sunny here... Wind 3.1mph. Highest gust was 9mph at 10:39am. I was outside at that time, felt good. lol
Should clinch 90F for the first time this year here, currently 89F.

I just got back too, and the actual heat/humidity feels the same to me, but the air here does feel noticeably dirtier/heavier for some reason, it's kind of hard to explain.

The min was 25c in DCA last night. I'm not sure what you are talking about when you say that it cools down there quickly.
Here's a graph of my winds from the beginning of the month. Mostly stays below 5mph with short peaks upwards. The 10th and 16th were nice breezy days.
