Humidity. Humidity is the difference. The more humid the air is, the more oppressive will the heat feel. From experience, it becomes more and more of a bitch the more you go towards south in europe.
Can confirm. Humidity matters a lot.
When the sun sets in a desert town, the temperature drops from oppressive 45 °C to tolerable 35 °C. That’s when people take their children to the park, people go shopping etc. The whole town comes to life when it’s only 35 °C. That sort of dry heat is so much more pleasant than humid jungle heat.
