App Temp, is what it actually 'feels like' taking into account windchill and humidity.

Dew point is the temperature at which due will form, according to current weather conditions. If your current temperature is under the dew point, you will probably have dew :D

Thats the way I read it anyway.

The BOM has a glossary:

There's a lot of information under the "Learn about meteorology" section.
