There aren't many. Relative humidity isn't usually of much interest to serious meteorologist. Stations report dewpoint; calculating RH is another step. Intellicast.com (see link) has national RH maps. I usually get my humidity information from dewpoint maps from weather.unisys.com. Contour plots of dewpoint (related link) are among of the most useful.

Are robots going to attack us?
They already have. They are controlling the highest levels of the government as we speak.
Where did Davy Crockett go to school and how long did he go?
Here and there, just like the rest of us. It's all relative, you know?
What two enemy forces did the American army face in Vietnam?
The heat and smell. In the US the smell was of concrete and fossil fuels (traffic); in Vietnam it was the smell of vegetation mixed with swampy rivers, water buffaloes, and the humidity.
Was teddy Roosevelt successful in his presidency?
Success is a subjective and relative and people disagree as to how to define or measure it, but the consensus of historians is that Teddy Roosevelt was at worst in the top 20% of US presidents.
In what US city will you find the Alamo?
SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS
What is the average humidity in baton rouge la US?
Average Relative Humidity: Baton Rouge Relative Humidity (Morning) 89% Baton Rouge Relative Humidity (Afternoon) 62%
How much us high relative humidity?
Relative humidity is 100% of water vapor in the air. When that happens dew forms.
When a weather forecaster tells us what the blank is he she is referring to the amount of water vapor found in the air?
That's relative humidity...
What is the significance of wet bulb temperature?
dry bulb temperature simply tells us the temperature of dry air.but the comfort also depends on humidity ie. water vapour presents in the air.Wet bulb temperature measures the humidity in the air.Because the evaporation of water in the bulb wick depends on the relative humidity of surrounding air.
What is the relationship between humidity and relative humidity?
The temperature determines the humidity.
What the difference between relative humidity and absolute humidity?
Humidity is the actual amount of moisture in a certain volume of air.Relative humidity is the percentage of the maximum amount of moisture that's possible in certain volume of air for a particular temperature.Example of Relative Humidity: Suppose a 5 ft. cube of air could could hold a maximum 10 oz. of moisture at 80 degrees. Now suppose that the cube of air actually contains 5 oz. of moisture. The Relative Humidity would be 50%.The idea of humidity refers to how much water is mixed in with the air around us. Everywhere on Earth there is always at least some water mixed in with the air; in some places, like the desert, it's just a little; in other place, like by the ocean or in a rainforest, it's a lot.The air can only carry around a limited amount of water vapor (evaporated water, or water in its gas form). At some point, there can be more water vapor than the air can hold, and the water turns into little droplets, which in nature is clouds, fog, or rain.Just "humidity," also known as "absolute humidity," means "what is the concentration of water vapor (evaporated water) in the air right now?" In other words, it would give you a measurement of how much water you would get if you could take a box of air and squeeze all the water out.This is expressed in units of mass/volume. So, for example, you could express the absolute humidity as 5 grams per liter (5 g/L) if there were 5 grams of water vapor floating around in every liter of air.Again, the air can only carry around a limited amount of water vapor. How much it can carry is determined by the atmospheric pressure and the temperature. There is a mathematical equation that lets you figure out the maximum amount of water that the air can carry based on the pressure and temperature. Relative humidity is how much water the air is actually carrying divided by how much water the air could possibly carry. People, especially weather forecasters, usually express this as a percentage. So, if the air in a particular place is carrying exactly half the amount of water that it could theoretically carry, the relative humidity would be 50%. If it were carrying all the water it could theoretically carry, the relative humidity would be 100%. The relative humidity can never be higher than 100% or lower than 0%.Relative humidity has no units, because it is just a fraction.So, ways they are alike:1. They both talk about how much water vapor is mixed with air in a particular place.Ways they are different:1. Humidity has units (mass/volume) but relative humidity is just a fraction or percentage.2. Humidity doesn't care about how much water vapor it's possible for the air to have, but relative humidity does.3. Humidity doesn't tell you anything about how close the air is to having rain or fog, but relative humidity does.Specific humidty is the amount of water in unit amount of air by weightandRelative humidity is the amount of water in unit amount of air by pressure(partial pressure)Relative humidity is one means of describing the amount of water in the air. Relative humidity describes the amount of water in the air as that precentage of the total amount air at that temperature should be able to hold.Absolute humidity describes the amount of water in the air by saying how many grams of water per milliliter of air are present.
You live without humidity?
we can live without humidity but it will be hard to breath for us.
Where can you find a map displaying the different pH levels of the US?
If you name is 0
What is the relative location for the Midwest in us?
somebody find out relative and I'll tell absolute and don't just say I'm working on it because that's not the right answer
Why is hair useful for measuring humidity?
humidity is important because it helps us be sweatin ode.... hahaha
Can you feel the water -humidity - in the air?
No, but the effects of humidity can be detected by humans.Related Information:Human temperature regulatory systems have to adapt to changes in evaporation rates, which increase with low humidity and decrease with high humidity. Some of the detectable ways that humidity changes effect humans are:The human circulatory system forces more blood to, or away from, capillaries near the surface of the skin to hasten or slow the cooling of the evaporative process.This can cause us to flush, usually under exertion, in response to higher levels of humidity.Human breath rates increase or decrease slightly with changes in humidity, due to oxygen concentrations that vary slightly and inversely, with changes in humidity.
What is South Carolina's relative location?
In the southeastern US.
