Summer Fact

The other side of humidity is a very dry environment. Simply inhaling requires fluid, so even when you aren’t sweating, you should still be aware of the water exchange occurring inside your body.

While sleeping in the brutal California desert, your body processes about a pint of water an hour. The environment is so dry that every breath goes in dry but comes out wet. So after eight hours of sleep, you will have used a gallon of water. A dry climate is just as serious as a humid one.

 

Madrid may not be as extreme. But you still have to deal with the dry heat here. Consider it when you're going out on a run, if your a long time resident or passing thru traveller.
