Re: “what is the humidity level there De?”
It's high. Temperature and Humidity offset each other. As the temperature rises each day, the air's capacity to hold water climbs and the humidity goes down. There are days when the humidity is down around 25%. But at the moment (8:24 a.m.) it's 71° and 96%. We're in a storm cycle for the next six days so the humidity will be high most of the time.

We can fight the humidity by running dehumidifiers. The one we've got emits a ton of heat, though, so I'm reluctant to use it in the summer. It really warms up the house.

what is the humidity level there De?

THAT has a LOT to do with feeling uncomfortable..

Its always high in the Ohio Valley. Combine that with temps in the high 80's and low to mid nineties and the heat just LAYS on ya like a blanket..

Higher temps without a lot of Humidity are far easier on us. Unfortunately, here and Chattanooga are like the Kings of Humidity. Both in Valley.

I'm glad ya can get away without the A/C . Ya can't do it here or Atlanta either.

One thing that works out for us is we purchased a Heat Pump that is a tad oversized in rating for our house.

We leave it on all the time and thermostat is set at constant 70 degrees.
It works.

Let me say this as well for a comparison.

It is still LESS HUMID and HOT here that being in the Jungles in summer time.. So I won't complain to loudly.. AT least there are not ANY poisonous snakes here to worry about like those two step Vipers.
