Dew point

Dew point is a measure of how much moisture is in the air. It's the temperature at which the air becomes so full of moisture that the moisture (water) turns into dew and forms on the ground. The higher the dew point, the more moisture there is in the air, so it will feel really humid and sticky outside. The lower the dew point, the less moisture, which means the air will feel dry and not humid.
