When wet and dry bulb thermometers record the same temperature, it means
Explanation
When wet and dry bulb thermometers show the same reading, no water evaporates from the wet bulb. This means the air cannot hold more water.
Saturated air has 100% relative humidity. The air is full of water vapor.
Normally the wet bulb is cooler because evaporation takes heat away.
