can someone clarify...

like wouldn't 92% basically almost be raining or have sweat dripping down the walls? or that feeling u get when you walk into an indoor swimming pool?

my windows are open as well, if I close them my relative humidity goes up about 8-10% to 55ish...

I know if I boil water on the stove/cook for a while, and the windows start to sweat, and the room feels warm and wet, the relative humidity goes up to 70-80.

how is it possible outside is 93% when it doesn't feel anywhere close to that...

If I move my hygrometers outside, they def wont read 93...

"relative humidity" is what weather reports use. It's measured outdoors and is a formula based on the temperature as well.. So if you're measuring humidity indoors it's going to be quite different
