The Dewpoint Thread (warm, Chicago, days, city)

Speaking of Tropical... JFK the new Florida? DPs haven't been below 74 in 3 days and once again above 76 today

[Infamous92]

The last 3 summers have featured consistent tropical humidity. Really living up to the humid subtropical classification.

19th day of 75+ dew points here. JFK has entered the 20’s.

Can a location have 2 classifications? Lol. Because they get below 0F dews, blizzards and arctic air as well.

Regarding not feeling as oppressive. I always felt soil type, vegetation, and air flow matter in how it feels even at the same DP temp.

yeah, it's difficult to judge a climate depending on this factor alone. My friends in Montréal and Toronto told me that the first part of July had been pretty hot as well.



That said Montréal was pretty muggy while I was there, but it was also hotter. One evening in Toronto I was wearing pants and a long sleeve shirt because it went down to 17c at midnight, which did not prevent canadian girls to get out in miniskirts and tank tops.



The only thing that bugged me was A/C at our place in Toronto which was very noisy and functioning even when it was 21c and cloudy. The host insisted on closing windows at all time to keep it running, which was completely absurd to us. I mean if it's cooler outside, why not leave the windows open ? Those people would not survive a week here.

I haaate that video, it looks so cool, yet so out of place for here. I don’t even want to think about Jan/Feb.

I think Its the skin being used to drier conditions. I bet it was still humid when it was 21c. Also, stuffyness inside doesnt leave easy even at 70F. I bet they didnt want warm humid air coming in so was easier to tell everyone to keep windows closed. Usually people have control of the AC/Heat unit though.

Lol. Sorry. Its kinda interesting though how we experience tropical conditions and arctic like conditions in a given year.

Much of or the whole Midwest probably will have their coldest winter or one of the coldest winters on modern record for 2018-2019, it’s still summer and I am ALREADY dreading this upcoming fall and winter season.
