The Weather Channels Melissa Medori said the channel has put together the 10 CITIES THAT WILL MAKE YOUR HAIR CURL, based on highest average relative humidity. Guess what local city is on the list. Give up? Amazingly, Astoria is only number three, behind Quillayute, Wash., and Mount Washington, N.H.

Also on the list were, in order, after Astoria: Port Arthur, Texas; Lake Charles, La.; Corpus Christi, Victoria, Brownsville and Houston; Texas (are we seeing a pattern, here?); and Olympia, Wash.
