Humid, but quite cool right now. Tomorrow might be the coldest summer high we have this year. I love mild and humid in summer .

Gotta be some truth to it. Could be why some Floridians think DPs in the 60s is dry. And why we feel oppressed around here.

Yup, DPs in the 60s with Clouds and temps in the 70s doesn't bother me much. Feels nice outside!

See, it's high temperatures that you don't like. Humidity itself is awesome.

I actually like humidity when its mild because it makes things feel fresher .

Above 85 F is when the humidity really begins to suck the life out of me. Sadly, that's quite common here.

The dew point is at 17.6°C / 63.7°F right now in Vancouver. In July we had eight days where the dew point hit 17°C, seven days where it hit 18°C and one day where it hit 19°C. So more than half the days in the month had a dew point of 17°C or higher. Not particularly humid compared to eastern North America but quite muggy by Vancouver standards - usually it's between 10°C and 15°C most days during the summer and only hits/exceeds 17°C a few times, not every other day for an entire month. I wonder where all this extra humidity is coming from?

Same. But then again I like humidity (in the warm months).
