Moisture in the air - a lot of it..
That and the heat from the sun starts to evaporate the excess moisture on the ground...
Stick your hand over a boiling pot of water - kinda soggy feeling. Now imagine that on a global scale.

Muggy is a word used for high humidity, which is a measure of the moisture content of the air. After it rains, there is still lots of moisture in the air, and if the suun come out right after, the sun is steaming the water off the ground, putting more moisture in the air.

Perhaps the humidity which caused the rain in the first place has something to do with it. Or if its very hot out and the sun is shining after it rains, the water on the ground can be evaporating causing the humidity to rise.

because the muggy air that you are feeling is the rain water condensing back up into the sky as humidity

rain is pure humidity, so when humidity is present it will make the air feel heavy after the rain. that is only true if it gets sunny and warm out after the rain, sometimes a cold front will follow the rain and then it won't feel so bad out.

Because there is now moisture in the air.
