In 2011 my city experienced 92F with a dew point of 80. Not suitable for much outdoor activity but it wasn't really as uncomfortable as I thought it would be. Hot and muggy weather seems relatively benign at first and then gradually drains you. Still, 75 is sufficient.

Max dewpoint of 64°F came between 12-2am. All day was in the 50s.

Damn. That's going to ruin the chart a little showing how dry its been during the day.

7pm in June, the dew point at LEX is 52F. Doesn't feel the slightest bit like summer.

Wow! Lets trade! DP 66°F here. Temps mid 60s too though so it doesn't feel tropical but feels soupy and looks tropical and with some yard flooding. Just the sound of drips off trees now and a distant thunder.

That's with temps in the upper 80s here, and NWS thinks several nights manage to stay 70. It'll be great to have some real summer weather for a change.

Gonna be quite cool there tonight. Forecast low of 51 F. Tomorrow dry as well, but it does look like dewpoints will be rising for you next week.
