Shoot, swamp coolers don't work well unless the humidity is under 20%, and one does notice 20%; I've seen it as low as 4%, lower than the Sahara, and sub 10% is common, but, really, 20% is quite bearable. Now 30% ....
I was born in the WDC area and moved back there for five years in 1984, so I know the climate. I remember thinking that, in summer, when the humidity dropped into the 30s on a hot afternoon, it felt dry. And I remember 85 degree mornings with 90 percent humidity. Much prefer an oven.
