40 to 50 F. Between 50 to 60 F at that temperature one can begin to feel a tinge of humidity, and any drier it begins to feel like a tinderbox, assuming full sunshine

Hmmm, alot of people think that all Mediterranean climates are dry, and that's true for the most part, but there are some exceptions. The biggest one would be Messina.

Dew points in summer which easily can be compared to tropical climates.

Default New Colors

What do you guys think? I changed some colors around.

Here's a look at the current dewpoints in the U.S. I used yellows for 40s, light green starts mid 50s to represent the start of being muggy and gets deeper green into 60s. Blue for 75+ to represent the air being soggy. Reds for 10F and lower to represent dry and fire.

Thoughts?

Thanks. The greens show the Gulf plume well. I had whites before for 50s and too much black/grays. I think yellows is nicer. Whites looked like clouds too much. I like how Maine this morning is staying dry.

It's disgusting isn't it? Rest assure I don't believe it will be as bad as we know it. Unlike last years relentless day after day we will get breaks from it this year.

Like this week.. Today muggy, tomorrow No. Monday-Thurs muggy then back to 40s for dewpoints..

Euro00z says this for temps and dew points on Thursday.
