Any cheerful news today? (Nothing negative please! πŸ™‚) (Part 2)

All moving in the right direction which is good but don’t forget your little gadgets are measuring relative humidity rather than actual moisture content. The outdoor air may measure 99% relative humidity but could actually be a lot lower in actual moisture content so in your 10 c room you could be better off letting the window open to blow through the dry outside air. By example, our living room is about 19c with RH about 55%. The absolute humidity is 9grams/M2. Outside air is 10c 99%RH but absolute humidity is 6grams/M2, or 30% dryer in real terms.

I have a number of these little data loggers around the house and outside for collecting temperature and humidity both RH and absolute. Not expensive but very useful.
