Default Humidity now out of fashion

Over SE England in the
last few days the dewpoints have been in the range 17-20°C yet I have

not heard
one mention of it in a forecast despite the fact that these are high

figures
and add greatly to the discomfort.


I believe one BBC presenter did show a chart of RH values with the
comment "we don't show this very often". No doubt some viewers now
believe that 65% is a high humidity and are wondering what the record
might be for the UK. :-)
