HUMIDITY IN THE DESERT




Humidity is the amount of water vapor in the air. Where I live in Arizona, our humidity can be as low as 10%.





Today it is over 50%





This obviously is nothing compared a 93-degree dew point temperature was recorded once on the Persian Gulf - a 95-degree day, with 95% humidity.





But for us desert animals, it feels like walking through water.
