It is drier west of I35, but you have to go yet another 150-200 miles west of that line to actually feel much difference.

The corridor is definitely transitional. Along the corridor it can be dry or humid. East of the corridor it's reliably humid. West of the corridor it's reliably dry.

Let's make this easy.

Laredo, San Antonio, New Braunfels, San Marcos, Austin, Temple, Waco, DFW, Denton - transitional - sometime humid, sometimes dry.

Everything else - reliably humid or reliably dry - locate on map to determine which.

You consider 42% humidity dry? That's what La Joya shows right now at 3:45 CDT.

I lived in McAllen years ago, and it was so humid to me that I felt smothered.

I personally think Dallas is bone dry but I meet people from places like Arizona that think Dallas is very humid. So yeah, Austin, Dallas, and San Antonio are all in the next tier down from east Texas. If that's still not what you're looking for, head west. You'll hit the desert soon enough.
Try down here in Corpus Christi. It will make Miami look like a desert in comparison. Corpus Christi is often rated at the most humid city along the Gulf, and one of the most humid cities in the world.
