    So far we’re on average three C less than Regina on most days so far and thick smoke.

        Yes the humidity is just insane this summer and with summer being a little short on rain where dose it come from?
        70% right now and I don't think it went much below 55% in the middle of the afternoon.

        Is this just an eastern problem or are other areas just as bad?

          Central ab usually humid wet and cooler but not this year. Today was 34C, 22% humidity and windy, never seen anything like this here, everything is just dying. We are cooling down at night with some dew but that's the only moisture. We will be harvesting before too long, will be a first that we have done anything in August here.

            We had that here last week couldn't get hay baled until late in the afternoon due to humidity. Not had as much humidity as we usually get this summer with it being so dry but it still picks the moisture up from the lakes and large water bodies I think.

                If it doesn't change its going to take a long time for a swathed crop to dry.
