May isn't known to be a humid month here... Here are the 60F+ max dew points at MDW since 2006 . Only 4 days since 2006 with 70F+ dew points...





Actually this month so far, MDW has 14 such days which is the highest number since 2006. Average number of 60F+ max dew points since 2006 is 9. The least was 2009 (one of the coolest springs on record).


So far this May my suburb has 16 days above 60F dew points with to hitting 70F

And the temperature only 76º, so it definitely feels muggy.

I use this site for my dew point data. I did find an error for just 1 day for Max temp for BDR. Contacted them, no return acknowledgement or correction. That's why NWS is better for data but they don't have DP's available.

Just change 3 letter airport code and month in link.

Current dewpoint......... 68°F. Temp 75°
