What is Dew Point? The temperature at which air reaches saturation and water vapor begins to condense.
Dew point tracks the air's actual moisture content more directly than relative humidity. As broad warm-weather guidance, 55°F or below is generally dry or comfortable, above 55°F through 65°F is increasingly humid, and above 65°F is very humid. WhetherWear uses high hourly dew point as a reason to favor breathable fabrics. Individual comfort varies.
