Current Conditions
The air feels heavy this afternoon in Fort Worth, with relative humidity sitting at 94%. The current dew point is 70F, creating a muggy atmosphere that makes the temperature feel slightly warmer than it actually is. Right now, the air temperature is 72F, but the feels-like reading is 73F due to the moisture in the air.
Light rain is falling from the sky, adding to the dampness.
Wind conditions are moderate, with speeds around 10 mph and gusts reaching up to 14 mph. These breezes offer little relief from the stickiness of the current air mass. For those heading out, be aware that visibility may be slightly reduced due to the ongoing light rain.
