dendrite Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 63/24...higher dews in N/C NH today than S NH.

I think one year we left our house while it was in the 70s. Got up there with self destructive sun, and I'll never forget the bank thermometer on Rt 25 as you climb the hill in Meredith heading east to CH. 58F. My mom had a meltdown.

Typhoon Tip Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 I don't do dews too well ... I like following summer synoptic meteorology ... monitoring heat wave genesis this ... and albeit rarefied, convection that, when set up luck prevails ...etc. I enjoy the heat to a point, if it is dry-ish. I think of 86 with a decent breeze rustling the trees and swaying branches, with a DP of 52 ... utopia. Add DP to that? turns to hell on Earth very fast ... very small wiggle room ... Say 54 ... I think o 56 DP at any temperature above 85 as pushing it - almost no room for margin and it's sack sticker annoying. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most people don't like them. We actually ran a poll in this subforum several years back and lower dewpoints overwhelmingly won. I can't stand them either. Utterly useless unless I'm at a pool party or something. They suck for biking, golfing, hiking, and being outside with my boys in the backyard. I'll take 80/50 all summer long if offered. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#NoPoles Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 Count me in the group that hates high dews...and the older I get, the less I can tolerate high dews...same with extreme cold...winter temps 25-30degrees are just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the flip side, just keep the dews low and dry out the soil so your drive rolls 150 yards. I hit a 400 yard drive down on the Cape in late June 1999 (very dry that month)...had a 9 iron into the par 5. Stuck it to 2 feet and then missed it.

I’d be willing to bet if it was done again today, and all posters took part on it, you’d see a closer result . Freak and Scoots are two examples who would vote differently now 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
