30°C with 30% Humidity sounds quite comfortable to me. That was also the norm until about five or ten years ago that if the temperature are in the 30s then the air is also quite dry with about 25-30% humidity.
But in the past years this has changed, now the humidity can be in the upper 40s and even 50s percent range when it is 30°C outside. Dry heat has becoming rare here.
A cloudy day at around 28-30C (82F-86F) with a relative humidity hovering around 30%-35 - Is it muggy to you or more on the dry side?
I just hear that the higher the temp is the more humid it will feel even if the RH isn't that high, true?
EDIT: That's just typical Western Sydney summer weather (I based the above on today's temperature). Right now it's 32C (87F), the dewpoint is 12C (53F) and humidity is still 30%.
No, not to me, Today we have a high of 82, no rain and the humidity is 67. Yes, the humidity does make it feel hotter. Even last week, we had a cold front come through, it was 68 degrees and 82 humidity! We had the ac on!
