70°F highs, without a question!As a matter of fact, 70°F dew points feel neutral to me now, being acclimatized to dew points in the mid to upper 70s—both indoors and outdoors this summer. Plus, Giorbanguly desiccatedi85 in a lot of the coastal Med locales y'all harp on, dew points in the lower-mid 70s aren't really rare. Something doesn't quite add up. Read my prior post in this thread before making judgements. Also, summers in the coastal Med aren't all that humid. Dewpoint data is hard to find, but going by average lows, most coastal Med locales are presumably less humid or similarly humid to here in summer. The exception would be the Turkish/Levantine coast like Mersin and Beirut.
"Though I despise summer humidity, 70F highs are worse. Proper summers should have highs of at least 75F-80F, and ideally 85F-90F. Also, high dewpoints don't necessarily mean that it's going to rain, as plenty of places have humid, albeit rainless, summers."

I have had both 21ºC dews and highs in the past. I think the dew is worse, as it is harder to cool off (especially after exercising). Both are not intolerable

70F highs, because that is well into crummer territory, and 70F dews feel wonderful.

Anything less than 20c Dp's is drier than a witch's tit... drier than a dead dingo's donger.... Sub 20c DP's and +32c temps causes grief in a tropical garden
