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 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.

Mike Moss: Relative humidity is not related to temperature and dew point in quite that direct a manner, although they certainly are interdependent quantities. There are some online calculators that ...

For this week’s Ask Storm Team we will be answering two questions! First up, Tony McDaniel asks, “What is the difference between relative humidity and dew point? Why is dew point important?” Dew point ...

Let’s first state the obvious. Most techs are intimidated by Psychrometric charts and Mollier diagrams, we just are. While there are some pretty complicated formulas that back up these diagrams, using ...

Dew point can be calculated using the air temperature and a relative humidity value, which is measured using something called a sling psychrometer. A psychrometer is a metal rod, around 6 inches long, ...

When you watch your First Alert Forecast, you may hear the meteorologist reference the dew point temperature in reference to how humid or how comfortable the air might feel to you. Viewers have asked ...

FARGO — Cool fall weather is an excellent time for a further examination of relative humidity. It is common during cool, damp, cloudy weather for the relative humidity to hover around 100%, yet your ...

I know in Houston, we hear the term humidity which is used to correlate to how muggy it may feel outside. But what actually is humidity and what does it represent? Humidity is the measurement of water ...

Dew point/relative humidity questions come up fairly often and this is a good one. Water vapor in the atmosphere is pretty important for deep-sky observing and photography. The atmosphere can only ...

The dew point is the temperature at which air is saturated with water vapor, which is the gaseous state of water. When air has reached the dew-point temperature at a particular pressure, the water ...
