Check Out Zoom Earth for Humidity and Dew Point Levels throughout the World

I found a really cool site called Zoom Earth. The site provides comprehensive data including temperature, humidity, relative humidity, and notably, the often-neglected dew point, which significantly influences one’s comfort level.

Make Sure You Choose a Comfortable Climate

Relocating to a new country involves significant considerations. It’s imperative to choose a destination that’s going to make you happy weather wise. If you hate the weather or it’s “way too hot” or “way too humid” or “way to cold”, then you’ll never be happy. So many people overlook this when making a move. Everybody’s different, some people love hot tropical, humid weather while others despise it. Some love the thought of having 4 distinct seasons while others don’t care. There is no right or wrong answer here. Just make sure that wherever YOU go, you like the climate overall.
