Meanwhile the lame ass crummer in Melbourne rolls on with what is quickly turning into one of the coldest gaylord sh*t stained Failbruaries in history.
That's insane for eastern Australia's standards....
....And I thought Sydney's usual 19C dewpoints were uncomfortably humid.
I'm surprised that that's considered unusual given the latitude, altitude, proximity to the South Pacific, and average summer temperatures and precipitation. I guess the winds coming from the interior Australia deserts helps moderate the humidity levels?

I assume it's related to that. Those dews are common in northern Australia.

That's right.
Even Sydney, for its latitude and coastal location, should be seeing dewpoints as high as 20C in the summer. But it rarely does.
The most humid places in Australia are on the northwest coast (i.e. Broome, Port Hedland). Ironically, they are in a semi-desert and yet they would see dewpoints as high as 30C in some instances. Even the wetter, humid areas on the east coast and on the same latitude (such as Cairns, Townsville) don't see such extreme dewpoints.
