The Dew Point is the temperature at which the air will become saturated (100% humidity). At this point, the moisture in the air will condense onto a solid object (grass, cars, dust, etc.), producing dew. If enough particles are in the air, it will produce a fog, which is just a low cloud.

When the relative humidity reaches 100%, it is likely that fog or mist forms.
Rain usually causes the humidity to increase. The opposite is not true: an increase in humidity does not produce rain, not even if the humidity raises to 100%.

you get rain
you get dew when the air is cooled so much by the cooler ground or car or whatever, that the relative humitdity in that tiny bit of air touching the cooler object reaches 100%
you get rain if a large area of air reaches 100% relative humidity and becomes supersaturated. then the water that is condensing falls on the earth
usually the relative humidity of the whole area gets near 100% during a good rain

It is more likely that it rains. 100% humidity means the air is saturated with water vapor at the air temperature and it can hold no more moisture.
For it to rain, two things should happen (or any one of these two). The first one is the air temperature should become lower. The second thing is more moisture is to be added to air.
At 100% RH, if the ambient temperature is morethan 97.4F, you will visibly sweat like anything.

The humidity can also be 100 percent without a cloud in the sky. It makes for the most sticky, uncomfortable conditions you can imagine. Just ask anyone who lives in the south or southwest - they all know about humidity with no clouds in the sky.

When the air is holding 100% of the moisture it can at that temperature then water vapor starts condensing into liquid water. For instance, put a glass of ice water in the room. The air around the glass is cooled and water vapor starts condensing back into liquid and coats the glass. This is because in the cooler air the molecules are closer together and therefore cannot accomodate as much vater vapor. Outdoors this usually results in fog, water droplets clinging to tiny specks of dust in the air.

It get's foggy and most likely will rain.
100% RH (Relative Humidity), means that the air contains as much water vapor as it can hold. Any more water vapor must drop out.

whilst increasing air cools under the dewpoint, the relative humidity at that time is a hundred% and the surplus water vapour condenses into the water droplets that type the cloud you will discover. If the cloud have been to bypass right into a close-by of drier air, the water droplets could evaporate and the cloud could decrease. The relative humidity of the air interior a cloud is often a hundred%.

What do you think. Maybe it rains. 100% humidity must be rain. ya think?

Your hair poofs into a large ball of fluff. Believe me it happens here all the time. You will also experience very unconfortable heat and sweating. The risk of heatstroke is very high and the outdoors is unbearable.
