Answer Man: Why does it get so humid in the South?

Q: Why does it get so humid in the South?

Absolute humidity measures the actual amount of water vapor in the air and relative humidity measures water vapor relative to the temperature of the air. Because warm air can hold more water vapor than cold air, it “feels” more humid.

An article on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention website explains that sweat won’t evaporate as quickly when the humidity is high. The article advises closely monitoring people who depend on you for their care and ask these questions:» Do they need help keeping cool? » Stay in air-conditioned buildings as much as you can. Air-conditioning is the number one way to protect yourself against heat-related illness and death. If your home is not air-conditioned, reduce your risk for heat-related illness by spending time in public facilities that are air-conditioned and using air conditioning in vehicles. Contact your local health department or locate an air-conditioned shelter in your area.
