Why dew point instead of relative humidity?
Relative humidity moves with temperature: 60% at 20°C is pleasant, but 60% at 35°C is stifling. Dew point measures the actual amount of water vapour in the air, which makes it the honest indicator of how it feels.
Along the Gulf and Red Sea coasts the dew point can exceed 27°C in summer — among the highest values on Earth — while inland cities like Riyadh or Sana'a stay far drier.
