I boil water in the winter time here in MD just to force humidity into the air to the point that the windows sweat. I am a hard core central to coastal Floridian who misses the humid sticky south so much I can't stand myself sometimes. The air here to me in MD is so dry my skin cracks and bleeds.
I would take 83 to 97 degrees with 70 to 100% humidity any day, every day if it were up to me..... soon I will make it that way and just return home to my mosquitoes and gators and sand in my bed, minimal clothing and dripping sweat, sunsets, fishing and rednecks.
My most favorite times are after a summer rainstorm when the air is so heavy with moisture that it feels like I am living in a steam bath, the moisture visibly raising up from the rain cooled heated ground beneath me, the steam seeming to surround me with tangible love, it's just pure heaven, and so very sensual.
I'm going to go take a hot shower now and imagine I can hear the waves when I close my eyes.
