Temperatures start a warming trend today and continue through Memorial Day Weekend. We are going to go from the 50°s earlier this week to the mid-80°s Sunday.
As temperatures increase through the weekend, so do the dew points. Right now it looks like the dew point temperature will climbs to the upper 60°s as early as Sunday and then stick around at that level through most of next week. (A couple computer models even suggest the dew point could climb in to the low 70°s.) That means our first taste of "muggly" weather is just a few days away.
What is "muggly" weather? It is a term I have been using since the late 1990's. I use it to describe what it feels like when it feels very oppressive.
Muggy + Ugly = Muggly
Anything above 60° feels uncomfortable. Anything in the upper 60°s and 70°s becomes "muggly".
What do you think? Are you ready for summer heat/humidity or are you fine with it staying cooler?
