Participant[quote=Rhett][quote=paramount]I just checked the humidity right now (6PM) in Del Mar and it was at 84% – wow. I guess I’m not used to the coastal humidity.[/quote]
Relative humidity is not really a good comparative measure – you are better off comparing dew points. Right now, just about everywhere has a dew point around 60 or 61 F – meaning equally humid. The relative humidity is lower inland because it is hotter. This is somewhat atypical this time of year – usually the dew point will be about 5 degrees lower inland. At any rate, this is slightly more humid than usual, though for people from the Midwest or Southeast, the thought of this weather being “humid” is laughable. 🙂
My impression based on a limited number of visits is that it always seems more sticky and humid at the fairgrounds / racetrack – must be some sort of dead zone for the breeze in that area. Throw in a huge crowd, and it’s probably a given.[/quote]
Let’s not forget the swamps right there in the Del Mar River Valley; them there swamps is probably the source of those dang mosquitos too. I’m sure the ocean contributes as well to the humidity.

Participantthe fair is a great way to see the cross section of ppl in San Diego. our social circle generally run tight with like minded folks that are our peers in occupation and social status. the fair forces us to break out of that circle and experience the public at large.
unfortunately, the picture isn’t pretty. I knew obesity is an epidemic. but the degree of which that is truly out there out in the general public at large is unreal. I know for most piggs it is quite unpleasant. but every year you should make it a point to go out there just to see what the rest of San Diego look like.
