muggy weather

Hot and damp

Muggy weather is hot and humid, with air that feels thick and oppressive.

The moisture makes temperatures seem hotter than they are and leaves you sweaty and uncomfortable: It's too muggy to do anything outside today.

Muggy typically describes summer conditions, especially before thunderstorms.
