Most meteorologists will disagree that people "feel" relative humidity as being uncomfortably muggy (http://www.theweatherprediction.com/habyhints/190/). Feeling damp is not the same as muggy in my vocabulary. 50°F and fog is not the least bit uncomfortable in my experience. I grew up in SoCal, and we had many such mornings and afternoons. They were quite enjoyable.

I don't see how that addresses the question of whether it is the dew point or the relative humidity that is the primary indicator of human comfort. It supports the numbers I threw out, but it doesn't say whether my interpretation of those number is reasonable or not.

I am not arguing anything. I supplied a psychrometic chart to support your position that cold air holds far less moisture than warm air.

 

Oh, okay. Thanks.

Is a "psychrometric" chart similar to a "psychometric" chart?

No. Entirely different fields.

You sure? I know that sometimes the weather here can drive ME crazy!

I suppose you could chart relative insanity vs. relative humidity for the general population here in Florida.

It's so cold here, the kids have their pants pulled up.

Poseurs.

A self-respecting legitimate thug would freeze his **s off before pulling his pants up.

 

So cold here you see dogs frozen to the fire hydrants.

 

41F here, raining, and ice still on the ground.

 

We've gotten a bit of a reprieve -- some snow yesterday and light snow right now, but we've only accumulated less than an inch. That's supposed to change drastically in a few more hours.

 

It's so cold here, an exhibitionist described himself to me

 

Back to normal here, above 70 F for 9 out of the next 10 days.

Yea. Hot and humid here again. Changed overnight.

 

It is so cold, a man climbs up frozen Niagara Falls:

 

Sunny, 87 and humid.

Winter is over.

 

Ice everywhere, 2 days before it was in the 70s, it may be again day after tomorrow.

 

Today was beautiful. Over the last couple days we got about 24" of snow at the house and I've spent a fair chunk of time plowing the mountain. The Beast did a good job, but she had to fight and she got pretty hot -- I could smell the tranny cooking at a couple points. We are supposed to get snow everyday for the next five or six days and that could be bad since the roads are pretty badly channeled right now meaning that we can't throw snow over the edge anymore. We've got the channel as wide as we could make it, but most of any further snow we get is going to get pushed up against the walls of the existing channel and narrow it down.

 

Sunny, 87 and humid.

Winter is over.

Oh, how I WISH!!

March is our snowiest month followed by April. The fun is just beginning for us.
