Weather_or_Not

65 dew point always feels like the jungle. I don't know why people downplay it, calling it a touch, tad, bit, itty bitty, humid. I like authentically dry air, low 50s for the DP and below. Preferably the 30s for DP. Chapped hands and lips.

One of my favorite maps, I love how the blue/orange gradient is properly set as 60 DP, which is a great threshold. Looks like September will keep our record DP run going.

Authentically dry air this evening…50 DP. One of the finest days I’ve seen in some time.

Yeah, I think it’s a bit muggy myself. Air feels damp.

This summer was definitely amongst the muggiest I can remember

Why are there so many dew deniers on here? It was clearly a muggy summer, and there has been a distinct lack of crisp days. Where are my sub-60 DPs? We don’t need records shattered to call this like it is.

Is there a chart for DP 60+?

Coc bEaTuiful aND cRIsP!!

Don't hold us to southern standards...it's oppressive on Thursday and Friday. Nothing borderline about it.

I'm surprised today didn't get at least a heat advisory. The heat index is 99, I guess the NWS have triple-digit fixation.

They are bundling up in their sweaters this evening and throwing another log on the fire

Everyone on this board, and on tv, and in the NWS, wants to hold New Englanders to Louisiana standards for Dew Point. I've been doing a lot of runs in this 65 deg / 63 dp weather, and let me tell you, it is a total soaking. Absolutely nuked with sweat and dew. RELATIVE humidity is still a thing. We don't have to wait until dews reach 70 to call it muggy. I hate when the TV mets call 62 dp, a touch muggy, a bit humid, etc. It's DANK and JUICED.

Why do you want to be so militant against people talking about Covid? It's a relevant issue. Cases are at an all-time high. It's a banter thread for a reason.

BULLETIN - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED * HUMID AIR ADVISORY LISTED FOR WORCESTER COUNTY * HAZARD: Dewpoints exceeding 60 degrees SOURCE : AT 7:41 PM EDT, A MASS OF HUMID AIR WAS DETECTED IN NORTHEASTERN CT MOVING NE RAPIDLY AT 60 MPH. Dewpoints are expected to reach into the low 60s for an extended period of time. IMPACT...Damaging dewpoints will cause some people to sweat profusely. This could mildly bother others who are outdoors. PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS... Reinstall A/C units Close the darn windows. Take shelter in the lowest floor Check on the elderly and pets

I hate passive language with humidity. They always need to qualify 60 DP with “bit” “a touch” “slight” “smidge”. HOW BOUT YOU JUST CALL IT MUGGY!
