Two Louisiana Cities Top The Most Humid Cities in The United States

Living here in Louisiana, we all know that the dog days of summer are the absolute WORST! From the high temperature, the humidity, to the triple-digit heat indexes. It can honestly be BRUTAl during a Summer here in South Louisiana.

It has been extremely hot and humid here in Southwest Louisiana over the last few weeks and I began to wonder, what city is the most humid city in the entire United States... The answer may or may not surprise you.

According to a study by Today's Homeowner, the Southern United States makes up well over three-quarters of the list of the Most Humid Cities in the country.

Cities with the Highest Humidity (According to Today's Homeowner):

• Orlando, FL - 88% Average Annual Relative Humidity
• Jacksonville, FL - 88% Average Annual Relative Humidity
• Fort Myers, FL - 88% Average Annual Relative Humidity
• St. Paul Island, AK - 88% Average Annual Relative Humidity
• Quillayute, WA - 89% Average Annual Relative Humidity
• Houston, TX - 89% Average Annual Relative Humidity
• Corpus Christie, TX - 89% Average Annual Relative Humidity

• Meridian, MS - 90% Average Annual Relative Humidity
• Jackson, MS - 90% Average Annual Relative Humidity
• Lake Charles, LA - 90% Average Annual Relative Humidity

Lake Charles, Jackson, Meridian, Brownsville, and Port Arthur are not necessarily a surprise because of how close each is to the Gulf of Mexico with plenty of port cities.

The research provided by Today's Homeowner says the Top 5 MOST humid cities are:

1. Lake Charles, LA (90% Humidity)
2. Jackson, MI (90% Humidity)
3. Meridian, MI (90% Humidity)
