1 Dew Point The temperature that the air needs to be cooled to reach saturation (100% humidity) Cooling the air below the dew point causes the water vapor to condense Dew, fog, clouds, frost form

2 The air temperature is 60°F and the dew point is 59°F. What does this indicate about the weather?

3 If the dry bulb temp. is 22°C, And the wet bulb is 16°C, What is the dew point?

4 Cold Drinking-glasses Chill Surrounding Air to the Dew-Point Condensation on Cold Drinking-glasses
