Doing the dew(points)

May 26th, 2012 at 8:18 am by under Tony's Pinpoint Weather Blog

It’s that time of year when we start talking about dewpoints and the “mugginess” factor.  Dewpoints measure the amount of moisture in the atmosphere.  Generally, the higher the dewpoint, the more “sticky” it feels.  You will certainly notice the humidity today, especially because highs will reach the mid 80s inland.  On Sunday, the humidity will be much lower and it will feel much more refreshing.  The humidity creeps back up for Memorial Day on Monday.  A breakdown of the dewpoints is shown below.  Have a safe weekend! -Pete Mangione
