It's been quite humid in the Brazos Valley over the last week, but how might you measure that humidity from home? We have a fun activity that you can do with everyday items. Now bear with me here, but ...

On a calm, clear night, the ground cools very efficiently by radiating heat back into the atmosphere. This lowers the ...

Dew point can be calculated using the air temperature and a relative humidity value, which is measured using something called a sling psychrometer. A psychrometer is a metal rod, around 6 inches long, ...

When referring to the mugginess of the air, meteorologists will point to dew point rather than relative humidity. Relative humidity is indeed a measure of how much moisture is in the air relative to ...

NORFOLK, Va. — Most summer days, you hear us talk about “humidity” when describing how the air feels. While many people are familiar with the term relative humidity — the percentage of water vapor in ...

An AC bridge circuit can be used to measure the unknown capacitance of a sensor, such as a relative humidity (RH) sensor. Some RH sensors have a transfer function of capacitance vs %RH. Usually the ...

Air pollution is not taken into consideration. Actually, relative humidity is not directly measured. The air temperature and dew point temperature are measured, and the relative humidity is then ...

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- You may have noticed that in our broadcasts here on CBS3, we constantly refer to a thing called the "dewpoint" during the summer months. Many have asked "what about the relative ...
