About this calculator

Dew point is the temperature at which air would reach saturation if cooled at its current water-vapor content. Relative humidity usually falls as air warms without added moisture, while dew point is more stable in that specific situation; mixing, evaporation or condensation can change moisture. This near-surface estimate uses a Magnus approximation for −45 to 60 °C (−49 to 140 °F), assumes typical surface pressure and does not adjust for station pressure. Comfort bands are rough guides.

Formula and variables

e = 6.112 × exp(17.62T ÷ (243.12 + T)) × RH ÷ 100; T_d = 243.12 ln(e ÷ 6.112) ÷ (17.62 − ln(e ÷ 6.112)); T_f = 272.62 ln(e ÷ 6.112) ÷ (22.46 − ln(e ÷ 6.112))

T is in °C; Fahrenheit input is converted first. T_d is dew point over water and T_f is frost point over ice. Absolute humidity = 216.7e ÷ (T + 273.15) g/m³. Near-surface estimate; pressure enhancement is omitted. Formula approximation shown for −45 to 60 °C.

Frequently asked questions

Does dew point always stay constant when air warms?

No. Dew point is more stable when air warms without gaining or losing moisture, because relative humidity usually falls as saturation vapor pressure rises. Mixing with other air, evaporation and condensation can change the water-vapor content and therefore the dew point. The comfort labels are rough guides.
