Doesn't everywhere get that?

Cloudy nights are less likely to reach dewpoint.

we get dewpoints at low temp level no matter what, most of the year.

Same here. Dew is standard pretty much all year.

I'm just not sure why G8RCAT would think clear nights and dew aren't normal, unless it's an arid climate.

Forgotten username implied that I should spend winter in a cloudy climate because I like damp cold.

You seem to think the whole world is like your climate. There are many areas that have low relative humidity most of the time.

Yeah I meant that the conditions he posted were very common here, or at least in a western european winter, so I figured they could be less common in Kentucky, which is why I wrote that. Something rare in a place can be the banality of another.

I'd like to see 50F with a lower dewpoint, but in our case it rarely goes below freezing point with that temp, most of the time being in the 40s.

Dewpoint is 20C right now, at 11:30pm. Air temp is 22C.

A cockroach haven.

I would love to know what the dewpoint is here on warm and hot evenings. Lots of water and wetlands plus irrigation here. Last few evenings after sundown have been absolutely stifling. Never experienced humidity like this before. A completely different world to the official station at the Airport which is well away from the irrigation and river network.

Unreal! Already upper 60s with a 60º dewpoint at 10am!
