Yes, that's right - 87%. Levels over 60% are normal at this season in this location and levels over 90% are not unknown.
This is what is euphemistically known as "uncomfortable weather" :-)
Strangely, the hottest temperatures I've experienced in Australia were in Melbourne which is almost as far south as you can go on the mainland. The heat there comes from a dry northerly wind blowing across the inland plains and relative humidity is extremely low while temperatures go into the 110 degrees fahrenheit plus range. That's much easier to handle than our temperatures which tend to peak about 10 degrees fahrenheit lower but with incredibly high humidity.
