Muggy conditions ahead: difference between Relative Humidity & Dew Point
In UAE, most people think that humidity increases during summer but as the below graph shows, this remains relative constant between 26% & 92% throughout the year.
Dew point is a better measure of how comfortable people will feel compared to relative humidity as it directly relates to how perspiration will evaporate from the skin. The annual range in the UAE is 9 degree Celsius to 27 degree Celsius. This increases to muggy levels from June, July, August and September. This makes people feel uncomfortable, hot and sweaty.
