Hyderabad has a dry heat, which for me is completely bearable. I keep waiting for it to get too hot, and it never comes. I've gotten used to waking up in a pool of sweat, having my maid wash my sheets and pillow case often (and them still smelling like sweat), occasionally waking up in the middle of the night overheated and realizing that the fan is off because the power is off... Dry heat doesn't bother me! When I visited Sri Kakulam which is on the water, and Chennai which is south and also is on the ocean, I had a lot of trouble dealing with the heat since it was so freaking humid... I guess when I go to Jaipur the second week of June I will have a real test of heat since Jaipur is one of the hottest places in India and we will be there at one of the hottest times in the Indian year... For now, though I'll be happily enjoying the beautiful weather in Hyderabad! Unless the monsoon comes early... (supposedly it begins the second or third week in June, but may begin a bit early, which will mean crazy rains and too much humidity...)
