Do You Live in One of the Top 10 Sweatiest U.S. Cities?

Let's hope not.

Now that we’re in the heat of summer you might find yourself…glowing a little. Okay, sweating. And sometimes it might be a full-on, grody, drench-your-outfit sweat fest.

With that in mind, the makers of Honeywell Fans teamed up with scientists at environmental consulting company Environmental Health & Engineering to discover which cities in the country are the sweatiest.

This was no guessing game: They reviewed data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association’s National Climatic Data Center and the U.S. Census Bureau.

Researchers also looked at a slew of environmental factors such as average temperature and humidity levels during summer, population and housing density, and average wind speed (which can help cool you off when it’s hot out).

Where you live obviously can influence how much you sweat, they reasoned, but so does how many buildings are in your area, which can trap heat and make you sticky.

After carefully considering all of the above factors, here’s the list they devised of the top 10 sweatiest cities in America:

1. Tampa
2. Miami
3. Houston
4. San Diego
5. Orlando
6. Washington, D.C.
7. Raleigh, North Carolina
8. Los Angeles
9. Dallas
10. Charlotte, North Carolina

No shocker here: They’re all hot cities in the summer. But, if you find yourself headed for Florida in the next few months, maybe pack a little extra deodorant—you’re going to need it.
