Yes.
Actually higher than 100% most of the time ... which is why you can see your breath in the winter.

How do use the word relative humidity in a sentence?
Relative humidity means the percentage of water vapor in the air compared to the total amount that could be contained. Or the measure of the amount of water vapor that air is holding compared to the amount it can hold at a specific temperature. This is different at different temperatures. Here are a couple of sentences:1. The relative humidity is 10 percent.2. We studied relative humidity in class.3. Saturation air has a relative humidity of 100 percent.
A psychrometer gives the same reading on both thermometers what is the relative humidity?
100% because, let's say that both the thermometers have a reading of 66o degrees celcius. 66o is 100% of 66o, so the relative humidity is 100%.
Will it rain when the relative humidity reaches 100?
It can go either way.
How long does it take for one milliliter to evaporate?
Depends on the rate of supply of heat and the relative humidity. It could take forever (100% relative humidity), or be almost instantaneous (pour onto a red hot plate with < 100% humidity).
What unit of measurement measures humidity?
Water vapor in the air is absolute humidity. The ratio of the absolute humidity to the maximum absolute humidity for that temperature and pressure is called the "relative humidity." Absolute humidity is very frequently expressed in terms of grains per pound of air, ppm, or vapour pressure. Relative humidity is usually expressed as a percent.Relative humidity, expressed as a percentage from 0% to 100%, is the amount of moisture in air divided by the total possible amount of moisture in air. Unfortunately, the total possible amount changes when the temperature changes, so the relative humidity can change without adding or removing any water.Another measure is dew point, which is the temperature at which water would condense. It doesn't change with temperature.The lowest measured relative humidity in Phoenix, AZ, USA, is 2%--pretty dry. Sometimes the dew point is below 0 degrees, also pretty dry. (Celsius or Fahrenheit? Both!)
Would the average relative humidity on a rainy day be closer to 100 percent humidity or 50 percent humidity?
100%.
What does it mean when relative humidity is 100 percent?
It is raining
What is air that has 100 percent relative humidity said to be?
Saturated
Why does relative humidity rarely reach 100 percent in polluted air conditions?
Relative humidity rarely reaches 100% humidity when air is polluted. This is do to emissions of carbon dioxide and sulfates, and is known as haze.
What happens when air reaches its dew points?
relative humidity is 100 percent.
What is the percent of relative humidity when raining?
The relative humidity when it is raining is generally considered to be 100% since if it was lower the rain would evaporate before it reach the ground.
When the relative humidity is 100 percent the air temperature is equal to the dew point temperature?
Yes.
What type of weather is likely to occur when relative humidity reaches 100 percent?
When the relative humidity reaches 100%, the dew point and air temperature are exactly the same and the weather is extremely humid and it is possible that it will be raining
What type of air has a realative humidity of 100 percent?
That would be "dewpoint"...When the air temperature falls to the dewpoint (or dewpoint rises to the air temperature), then you have 100% relative humidity.
What will happen if relative humidity is 100 percent and the temperature begins falling?
It will be stiky and unconmfortable

What does it mean when humidity is 100 percent?
This is called relative humidity. It is the ratio between the actual humidity, and the humidity for saturated air - that is, the maximum amount of water air can hold. This saturation point is dependent on temperature.
