Meteorologists talk plenty about the dew point temperature during the summer, as it is a great indicator of humidity and a condition to watch when severe weather is possible. So what is it? The dew ...

TUCSON, Ariz. (KGUN) — The First Warning weather team often refers to dew point and humidity. Most people know these terms have something to do with moisture, but a lot of people don’t really ...

The short answer is both terms are different and describe different things about moisture in the air. The dew point is another temperature value. It is the temperature air needs to cool to become ...

NORFOLK, Va. — Most summer days, you hear us talk about “humidity” when describing how the air feels. While many people are familiar with the term relative humidity — the percentage of water vapor in ...

Dew point and relative humidity, two terms that have floated around many weather forecasts over the years. What exactly do they mean and when are they best used to describe the conditions outside? Let ...

Humidity can make or break a summer day. A sunny day with a temperature of 85 degrees can feel pleasant when the humidity stays low, but once the humidity cranks up, that same day can become ...

Dew point, a direct measure of atmospheric moisture, is a much better indicator of discomfort than relative humidity. It is a conservative feature, meaning it remains reasonably constant during the ...

Relative humidity and dew point are often mistaken for the same thing and can be sources of confusion. But what are the differences between the two, and which is more relevant in everyday life?

This week, there has been lots of discussion regarding the dew point and how it relates to humidity. While most of us have probably heard of the dew point, do you actually know what it is?

ROCHESTER, N.Y. (WHEC) – We are going to talk directly to the weather geeks. Today we look at the difference between dew point and relative humidity. The dew point is basically a simple concept. It is ...

The dew point is the temperature that the air would have to be cooled to (at constant pressure) in order to reach saturation. As the temperature drops to the dew point, water vapor molecules condense.
