Now there's something I don't miss about living in the Carolinas - the
wall of hot, humid air that you confront on summer afternoons when you
go outside. Only TODAY it's all over the East Coast! Check out these
dewpoints:

Reading, PA is claiming a dewpoint of 86 this hour, but I doubt that
observation.
So far today at WeatherMatrix HQ in Central PA:
HEAT INDEX 100.0 °F {at} 01:22 pm
DEWPOINT 76.8 °F {at} 01:18 pm
The following East Coast stations were reporting dewpoints over 75
