It'll be 90's here, and way humid, I just took the garbage out, and my shoes were soaked from going through the grass.

The solstice always feels a lot more "midsummer day" to me than "first day of summer"...

I'm usually good with the heat later in the day. It's that "feels like the 90s" when I still need to walk across campus after a late bagel for breakfast...

My favorite is when the dew point and the temperature are the same (like 80F) and it's not raining.

76% humidity and dew point 75 right now (to go with the 83 degrees). Do we want a high dew point or low one for comfort?

As the dew point rises to get closer to the air temperature, the humidity goes up. I personally find dew point easier to grok at a glance than relative humidity (it doesn't change with temperature) but different people think differently.

Ideally, you want something lower than 60 for dew point. In my HVAC work for a major corporate retailer, we program for 54 in our stores. (Some places easier to maintain than others!)

Wait, you want people to actually think through the implications of their proposals for a few seconds before posting? On the internet!?!?

But...but what would happen to Twitter? "Our sales would plummet!"
