We’ve recently received several reader requests asking us how to calculate relative humidity if the temperature and dew point are known. Relative humidity is the ratio (expressed as a percentage) of ...

When referring to the mugginess of the air, meteorologists will point to dew point rather than relative humidity. Relative humidity is indeed a measure of how much moisture is in the air relative to ...

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 ...

A researcher at the Max Planck Institute for Chemistry in Mainz, Germany, has suggested a very simple formula for converting between the relative humidity and the dew point temperature without needing ...

Relative humidity measures how much moisture is in the air compared to how much it could hold at a given temperature. It is simply the dew point temperature divided by the air temperature, times 100.

You may have heard of dehumidifiers, which are machines that help reduce the humidity in your home, but what is relative humidity? And why does it matter for you? There are some confusing terms that ...

Relative humidity is a simple concept as weather phenomena go – but it has significant, far-reaching consequences for how we must take care of ourselves on a hot or wet day. Humidity is the amount of ...

Relative humidity and dew point both give us an idea of the amount of moisture in the atmosphere; however, only dew point is a true measurement of the atmospheric moisture. Relative humidity is ...
