Gotta love top 10 lists, right? Even if they're on gross topics, like which American city could fill an Olympic sized swimming pool with sweat in less than three hours? Well here's a list that couldn't be more appropriate for the height of summer: the top 10 sweatiest cities in America (and yes, #1 can fill the pool -- yuck!).

1) Phoenix, AZ
2) Las Vegas, NV
3) Tucson, AZ
4) Dallas, TX
5) Corpus Christi, TX
6) San Antonio, TX
7) Austin, TX
8) Shreveport, LA
9) Houston, TX
10) Waco, TX

An Arizona city may have the #1 spot, but looking at this list Texas is the sweatiest state by far!

Yeah, but in Texas, it's a wet heat. You may sweat in those dry desert places, but here in Texas, we don't let it evaporate!

I dont understand how not one florida city made the list! They at least get a respite from the heat in the winter in most of Tx and Zona.

Florida, it can still hit the 80s and 90's in "the dead of winter"

i concur with tim, it's curious that not one florida city made it on the list and it's sweltering here all year 'cept for about 2 weeks. in late july and august, you could fry an egg on the street...at night. and it's humid to boot.

tim...i'm guessing you attend UF(or us d to)? i went there for grad school. graduated 2005. i love gainesville...it's so woodsy and much cooler compared to most of florida.
