Dew point dropped to the low 60s for the first time since Monday morning as strong winds come in from the west. Hopefully it helps dry out my containers because they're all kind of waterlogged right now after receiving over 3.5" of rain since Wednesday afternoon.
Not just that but the lawn is showing fungus signs. Crazy. You water to keep it from drying out but the humidity during the day gives it fungus.
Here the dew point has been consistently in the 70s for a while now, but when it's cloudy and breezy it will feel great outside. Proof that the sun & heat are the real cause of discomfort and not the humidity itself.
Fungus.. So humid there's not enough time for soil to dry out.
Dewpoints today in Southern New England is pretty much south like. Mid 70s.
That reminds me... Let me update that graph I do
Dewpoints reached an impressive (for Ontario) 70.5F yesterday despite a high of only 77.5F, but now they're in the low 50s and it feels like October.
Temperatures were supposed to stabilize at around 60F around dawn (after dropping through the night), but instead they've just kept dropping... low 50s now.
The soil is moist here too, even at the surface, and has been since the 19th, due to cloudy conditions and fairly high relatively humidity, but no fungus, unless you mean mushrooms? We have had a few mushrooms fruiting here and there.
11 days this month in the 70s. Did any other June have this many?
Doesn't look like it
We had some pretty high numbers too compared to last year (7 days reaching 70F+). I guess that's part of why it feels so weird that today's daytime high is only looking like 59-60F (also because it's basically July)...
Average max daily dewpoint this month was 62F, which is closer to last July than last June. And in fact, we only had three days last year with 70F+ dewpoint (71F Jul 28, 72F Sep 5, 71F Sep 6) compared to seven already just in June.

Using the same legend as you, the contrast between 2024 and 2023 is pretty stark.
Not sure if the rest of summer will be very humid though, we'll see I suppose. Sun-Tue looks like dew points in the low-mid 50s, but then rising to 70s on Wednesday?

Try my bone crushing dews over 80f with lows over 82f.
