I have to say I don't have an idea of the difference between 12% and 304% humidity -- especially in such high temperatures. Our humidity is to be around 50% today.

And now I have to go away and do some writing. *\:-(

Twelve per cent humidity is different at different temps. If it were 40 degrees and 12%, you would feel quite cold, especially if the wind is up. At 130 and 12%, you would find it hard to breathe, and you would also be miserable because you would feel “wet.” Eighty degrees and 80% is, to me, almost unbearable, though 80 and 10% is “cool” enough that I need a sweater.

The good thing (to me) about the last week, is that it has been comfortable enough for me to go outside and actually warm up, without sweating like a pig. So 113+ and 3% is ideal for me. I’m like a lizard on a rock...;o]

On the East Coast,

It's 53% today and not so bad.
