On the Manhattan weather page of Wunderground this morning, it says the humidity is at 39 % with a dewpoint of 36 degrees F. Those are wintery conditions. The temperature reads 60.3 degrees F.
On the Brooklyn page, it says that our humidity is 80% with a dewpoint of 63 degrees. Our temperature is 69 degrees F.
A dewpoint close to the temperature generally means that we feel uncomfortable, sticky or damp. I have not yet been out, but my wife reports that it is not dry and comfortable, but like moving in slow motion, jeans heavy.
Maybe the Manhattan gauges are set to suggest comfort for all in Manhattan, and to convince those not in Manhattan to come in.
