Humidity is the concentration of water vapor present in the air. Water vapor, the gaseous state of water, is generally invisible to the naked eye. Humidity indicates the likelihood for precipitation,

The wet-bulb temperature is the lowest temperature that can be reached by the evaporation of water under current ambient conditions. It combines humidity and temperature to better reflect heat stress
Humidity
…The humidity of an air and water vapor mixture is determined through the use of psychrometric charts if both the dry bulb temperature (T) and the wet bulb temperature (Tw) of the mixture are known. These quantities are readily estimated by using a sling psychrometer. There are several empirical formulas that can be…
A sling psychrometer. The small fabric sock covering the bulb of the upper thermometer is wet with distilled water and whirled around for a minute or more before taking the "wet-bulb" thermometer's reading. The lower thermometer provides the "dry-bulb" temperature.
