Everyone up here is hanging out for the easterlies to kick in. Due in a few days. They signify the beginning of the dry season, cooling things to 30 degree days & knocking humidity down to 12% & night temps under 20.
Till then clothing is still soaked a short time after putting it on & the consistent 34 degree days & 25+ degree nights continue.

Feeling for you mate. Did 7 weeks in Darwin Feb/Mar and the humidity was crazy. Would work up a full body sweat just by blinking! The top end had a poor wet season which just excentuated it. Whenever a brief storm came through it was a relief, but not long after when the sun came out again, oh boy. I know it's a world away from what you're experiencing, but when I walked from an airconditioned building to outside, and the specs instantly fogged up, I knew this was serious humidity!

Yeah, it's been more like a one long build up season than a wet season, mind you I reckon we've adapted pretty well. Reckon it would be a different story if we had jobs. I got up at 5am a couple of mornings ago to beat the sun just to do an oil & filter change on the Patrol!
