I grew up in Seattle and live in Vegas now. The first time I was in Vegas it was not even the hot part of the year and I remember going from the hotel to the rental car and thinking I was going to die. I fucking hated it.
Fast forward 20 years. I just went outside (3am) and it is probably 95 degrees. It feels great. You acclimatize. I still miss the variable weather of Seattle and wish it rained more here, but cannot deny how much I like knowing every day is going to be nice. Once you acclimatize it is only hot for a couple months and only when the sun is beating down. At night it is pleasant. It is also quite chilly in the winter.
The only thing I don't like about it here is the lack of trees. Growing up in forestland makes it hard for me to tolerate the desert scenery but it will do for now.
