DEW POINT
Dew point is the point at which water vapor in the air will condense to a liquid. We can find this temperature by placing some ice cubes in a glass of water to lower the temperature of the water. As the water temperature decreases record the temperature when moisture is first observed on the outside of the glass. This is called the dew point and if the temperature of the air reaches this point under the same conditions some form of precipitation will occur.
