The territories with the highest air humidity on the Earth are, as a rule, close to the equatorial part and mainly to the coastal regions. The most densely populated areas are the Asian cities (southern and south-eastern parts): Calcutta, the cities of the Kerala site in India, the Philippines of Manila and Bangkok in Thailand. In them, in a rainy season, the temperature of air and humidity reaches such a level that there is a feeling of being in the sauna.

The wettest city in Australia is Darwin. The period of dampness in it lasts from December to April. Also during the year in Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia) and in Singapore it is humid due to their close location to the equator and, in addition, to the ocean coast. Therefore, there are few solar clear days in these places.

There are such cities and in cooler places. This is Northern Tasmania (Australia). This is due to the fact that its territory is washed by the ocean between Tasmania and Australia. In summer, dry, hot air is absorbed by the ocean, and temperatures above 35 degrees Celsius are rare here.

In the US, the cities with the highest air humidity are Forks and Olympia, located in Washington State.
