Here in the midwest right now I just checked weather.com and it said the dew point is 81F, 94F w/67% humidity!!!!!! I ran this morning when it was closer to 72, but I was wondering if anyone on these boards runs outside when the dew point is 81F.

just moved to the bay area from the midwest

105 with a dewpoint of 77 back home
i'm NEVER going back
Yep, all over the Midwest, incredible humidity. Some stations around you have dew points as high as 84F right now. I've been in dew points over 80F just two days, back in 2005 in coastal Massachusetts. When it's that high, your sweat doesn't evaporate (and therefore doesn't cool you down) and running is just miserable. It "feels" like about 110 even when it's only in the low 90's, so expect as much from your running as you would on a 110-degree day. Personally, running when it feels that hot is not even an option.
Carolina mornings suck too
Hmm, sounds like Brian Sell and the other US marathoners should book flights to MO right now for pre-Beijing acclimation. If you can get a couple of old smoke-belching city busses to drive in front of them while they train, they'll be the best prepared runners in the Games.
Just as bad in the Ohio river valley. Evansville reporting. This evening was a nice reprieve but next week looks like hell's gates awaiting.
saturday morning in denver 10:55 AM - 98 degrees, it felt like 98 degrees.
just as bad in omaha matt - i can't wait to get back in columbia next week ... not!
dew point in Taiwan is 75-77 most of the time May - September. Running at night when it is 85 is still hell.

I think you are listing the Heat Index as the temperature.
Here, by the way, are the values from yesterday -- do not run at temp of 94, dew point of 81. It looks like the maximum dew point was 82 (and temp of 88 meant Relative Humidity of about 82%).

This morning the weather was cool for my 5 mile run in South Florida. The dew point this morning was only about 80 and the temperature was a cool 84 degrees.
But that was the low point of the day and is just normal weather here at this time of the year.
I'm originally from the midwest and it cracks me up when I see these posts complaining about one day of weather that is normal for southerners.
I'm looking foward to October when the low for the day cracks below 80..
I grew up in the midwest, so I know how nasty an 81F dewpoint is. In Denver, today is a record 23rd straight day of temperatures above 90 degrees; dewpoint right now (temp is 91F) is an unbelievable 32F (12% humidity!).
With the air so dry, 91 doesn't feel that hot--in the shade. if the sun is shining, however, (and it usually is) it feels like you're in your oven with the broiler on. I've stopped running in the middle of the day when the weather's like this. Fortunately, with the thin, dry air we have, the heat usually breaks overnight.

Please run more than 5 miles in a day before you start talking smack about dealing with weather.
