If it's going to be 85 degree fahrenheit but 20 to 60% humidity will the weather feel like it's colder than 85 degrees?

Yes. Your sweat actually gets to do its job and evaporate.

Humidity makes things feel warmer since it inhibits your ability to cool off by reducing the effectiveness of sweat.

Yep. For instance there's a noticeable difference between stepping into the shade in a dry heat and doing so in a very humid area.
