When they say it is not the heat, it is the humidity, damn straight it is about the humidity.

Had a weatherman in Houston talking about 102% humidity on TV one time. This did not sound right to me, as I am the sort of person that would maybe poke someone in the eye, if'n they were to start talking about giving 110% I call down there to ask, lady says hold please, and the guy I was looking at on my crapbox TV 15 minutes ago is on the phone. I guess I should not have been surprised, what else is the weather man doing, when he is not reading the national weather service thing.

I ask him about it, and he tells me it is a relative humidity. 100% relative humidity, well that is rain, how is it wetter than raining? Apparently, there is a set temp, barometric pressure, dew point and they call it 100% humidity. Weather conditions can exist, where the relative humidity can be greater than 100%, which is known as supersaturation. This is all great to know, but it still does not seem right to me. He finally just says look, it means don't go outside, which is solid advice.

If the temperature is 90+ and 100% relative humidity, or heaven forbid, greater than 100% humidity, do not go outside. It will be too damp for you to burst into flames, but just barely.
