Dew point temperatures once again soared into the upper 70s and lower 80s on Monday. These temperatures were remarkable for the calendar now being in August! The featured chart presents IEM calculated yearly maximum period where the dew point remains above 75 degrees and the total number of hours above 75 degrees. This year is still behind last year by those metrics, but there is still plenty of time to go in August to catch up. While not shown on the chart, many of these humid periods occurred during August.
