When I was growing up in Mt. Isa
we called the humid months (October to December) "The Wet". They also had another point of reference for people dealing with this weather effect - "going troppo".

Welcome to the club both of you - once you've gone troppo, you can't go back. This is Australia.

I've heard Darwin is the worst for going troppo.
Apparently, you get that just-before-a-thunderstorm feeling for weeks before the wet finally breaks and it drives people mental. I was up at Mt Lewis near the end of the wet in early 2012 and it was actually quite cold for a short while. Spent a happy few hours flicking leeches at each other.
