This is 100% Humidity

bmorechick — Mon, 28 Jul 2025 00:51:20 GMT

Hello folks...well for those of you who do not experience high humidity, here it is! I just came in from sitting out in the porch a bit ago and went upstairs. This is what all my windows look like. It's the humidity on the outside contrasting with the ac on the inside. And my ac runs at 73 - no bear cave in here. This is not a filter - these are clear windows! This is on the outside of the window.

It was in the 90's today and the humidity is now 100%- unreal. My hair was actually damp. However yes, I do love it.

@Desertdi oh wow - I wonder what 9% humidity feels like. Even in winter here it usually runs 45-50%.

Humidity below about 15% is wonderful.

I can notice the humidity at 20%

It never occurred to me that it was possible to actually "love" humidity. I loathe it just keep thinking about autumn and winter.

@Q-Checker LOL

@Bookplate well because I am a lover of outdoor heat, a steamy hot summer has always appealed to me. I am not looking forward to wearing a sweater, jacket or coat. I live for my shorts and tank tops and being outside after work. I also freeze at work in the ac and usually turn my little heater on.

I've seen the humidity as low as 0% in Albuquerque in the Springtime. It was very low today but didn't hear the reading.

@Kachina624 0%????? Talk about the other end of the spectrum! I would imagine your skin feels as dry as the desert, while here we are blotting the moisture from our skin all day long...

@sunshine45 I just mentioned blotting the skin all day. I cannot use any moisturizers on my face in the humid summers. It just slides off.

Once my sister and I, and her friend and the boyfriend, went across country and at one point we were at the four corners. In Arizona it was 110 degrees from what I remember. It was hot but it wasn't bad!

I think the humidity is so unbearable. I went outside for a few minutes today and I was soaked when I came in. Just awful.

I will be so happy when cool weather comes. Winter is my favorite and next fall.

@bmorechick,

You are not normal. You know that right?

@on the bay

"why be normal." And yes it's odd but my husband sits right out there with me - another heat lover.

Yesterday it was so hot and humid here it was disgusting. I'm right outside of Pittsburgh. We have a pool and it was so bad outside I wouldn't even get in the pool! Today my daughter and a friend and I got in for about three hours. Hot and humid again today but at least you could breathe. The next three days are supposed to be pretty oppressive. Low to mid 90's. We've had quite a summer here. Either hot or wet or hot and wet.LOL

Everyone stay cool and hydrated!🌞❤

I can take hot weather, but not dripping humidity. I myself can't function well. I was in Florida a couple times, and couldn't bear it. The AC was going everywhere, but I was still damp warm, and skin dripping. Hair wet and frizzy.!!! I couldn't find respite very well. Even in hotel room nice and cool, it was so damp.I was in a cab and mentioned to driver I wasn't used to humidity. He said he didn't think it was humid, it was fine. But he said, "it does get really humid sometimes". , lol lol. So I guess it's a matter of perspective. Lol

@bmorechick. Everything dries out; skin, lips, furniture, bread, etc. We make up for it when we turn on our evaporative coolers which put moisture into the air in the house.

My sliding doors at my Florida condo look this way frequently. I just wipe them down with a mop. Doesn't bother me at all!

I just spent a week in Northern Idaho, outside a lot. Walked out of the Philly airport a few hours ago, and could barely breathe! This was about 2 a.m. I will be adjusting to more than time tomorrow.
