Is it true that dew point affects human comfort more than temperature?
Partly. One drainage text asserts dampness affects comfort more than temperature, and a dew-point reference details dew point's role in comfort and discomfort, while other sources treat temperature as the primary comfort driver. None directly compares the two at the strength the claim asserts.
