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.
