Or sourly wet? Or saltily dry?

It can't be sweetly warm? You've never been sat on Waikiki Beach this time of year.
Sourly wet is exactly how I'd describe the heavily polluted rain in London and if you've ever gotten a mouthful of sand (while sat on Waikiki Beach) you'd agree that it is most definitely saltily dry.
Brilliant question by the way. It made me smile for the first time today....
...I'm dreaming of being on a Hawaiian beach, it's cold and wet here

It can be!! It all depends on your point of view. I found it sweetly warm last week and it was wonderful!! It was sourly wet this week but I'm still waiting on the dry part. Good question!!!

All depends on your creativity and ability to break with convention. Oh, and perspective. I bet a polar bear thinks it's sweetly cold, or bitterly warm.
Is it freezing cold, frigid cold or ice cold?
Boiling hot, melting hot, or a scorcher?
Homer Simpson once said "I like my beer cold, my coffee hot and my homosexuals flaming"

Oh it can, it can. Bitterly cold is a cliché, but your original adjectives for wet and dry are excellent. Speaking as a (published) poet, I love new ways with words.

I think warmth can be sweet. Thank you for adding to my vocabulary on the subject.
The others may come into use as well, if you use them enough.
Expressions enter the language through common understanding and frequent use.
