This morning dew points upper 60s to low 70's. Dew points at 20C in the concrete jungle of Chicago, and upwards to 23C in suburbia.... My station is still off line . Going to be on the muggy side today. Tomorrow, through Saturday much more so....

I'm pretty sure there's nowhere in the world that gets such high dew points at such high latitude as North America.

It is from all the corn fields and their evapotranspiration.

Currently 95/79 in Des Moines, creating a heat index of 113F. Equally nasty in parts of ND, though actual air temps not as terrible I think.

Fascinating article about how corn breeds those Iowa dews:
