First off, don't point, it's not polite.

Now that's out of the way, I learned only recently how useful a piece of information the dew point is, and since it took almost 40 years to get clued in, I imagine there are some others who could use the half-minute meteorology lesson.

It's simple:

Dew point in the 50s, nice and pleasant humidity.
Dew point in the 70s, nasty crack sweat humid.
Dew point in the 60s, between nice and crack sweat.

Something other than snot flavored would be good.

Hmmm... I'd say snot is pretty flavorless.

It's all about the texture.

Been inclined to wander... off the beaten track.
