Dry-bulb temperature

Dry-bulb temperature is like the temperature you feel when you step outside on a sunny day. It's the regular temperature that you can measure with a thermometer in the air, without any water or moisture involved. Think of the dry-bulb thermometer as a regular thermometer that just tells you how hot or cold it is outside without considering any humidity or moisture levels. It's important to know the dry-bulb temperature when you want to figure out things like how much a room needs to be cooled or heated, or how much water you need to add to the air to make it more comfortable. So, dry-bulb temperature is basically just a fancy way of saying regular temperature without moisture involved.
