Australia is quite a long place, north to south. A not-insignificant part of it is in the tropics.

Most of coastal southeast Queensland can expect 70% humidity in Feb/March. Venturing north in summer and you're into 30C+ temperatures despite heavy rain most days.

That said, dew points would probably provide a better comparison.

I am aware of that and have been there. Still, on average (I said "usually") australia is much much drier than europe, even southern europe.
