I am not totally sure if Your statement is right or wrong... I think it may 
be in the way we would measure the dryness of the air. For example.. with 
that little storm I was heckling You about, that brought the bad storm from 
Texas last weekend. During the storm, it was about 17 degrees, but the humi 
dity was at 98% ( I only know this as I was keeping track of the storm with 
weatherbug on the computer. ) However the dewpoint was real low, I think 7. 
In the summer even if the humidity is lower, if the dewpoint is high, it is 
awful sticky up here in the north. During the cold months, I found out last 
weekend, You CAN have cold temps, but that humidity was real high at 98%. It 
might depend on what measurement you use to determine the dryness of the air.
humidity or dewpoint. I dunno, not being a meteorologist or even a 
meteorologist wannabe.
