North Central Illinois
I run a Vermeer, and I run on the top side of the green. My dealer always says to run the bale size a few inches under the max to reduce load on belts and bearings.

Biggest thing I have found in this humid climate, is let the bales sit on end in the shed for a week or two before stacking. Even if it doesn't reduce dustiness, it at least allows me to monitor for hot bales. I don't stack until they have a chance to sit for a week or two. I have found a charcoal black bale twice in a stack that "wasn't put up too wet." If you leave them out to sweat, you can find that one bale pretty easy with an IR thermometer.
