Instead of using humidity directly we use dew point to measure what people commonly mean when saying it feels humid. Dew point is classified into 4 categories: Dry (under 25°F), Comfortable (25°F to 60°F), Muggy (60°F to 70°F) and Oppressive (70°F or greater). The table below shows the percentage of days with a dew point within a particular class.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Dry | 95.0 | 95.0 | 96.0 | 83.2 | 27.0 | 1.3 |
| Comfortable | 5.0 | 5.0 | 4.0 | 16.8 | 73.0 | 98.7 |
| Muggy | 0.0 | 0.0 | 0.0 | 0.0 | 0.0 | 0.0 |
