Absolutely shocking humidity. It's that real sickly kind of humidity you get during monsoon in South East Asia. Having flashbacks to my last trip Vietnam.
I went to Vietnam in the middle of winter, so went from the cold weather here to stepping off the plane in Hanoi to 40+ humid degrees. It was about 5 days of 40+ temperatures before it finally rained. Absolutely brutal.
I think I was there in June, but it was unusually hot even for Vietnam - enough that it was in the news as a major heatwave. I was drinking a few 1.5L bottles of water every day and still got a bit dehydrated, I think my body just couldn't physically absorb the water fast enough to replace what was lost. When it finally rained it was an incredible relief.

I think I went in maybe late July? So it was pretty wet but I didn't cop 40 degree days. I guess that's why it feels like a throwback to that time.

Yeah it's making me feel unwell
