Hmmm ... not uncommon for our relative humidity to be in single digits,
and it's very often less than 20%. I never get shocked by static
discharge. However, when we lived in Auburn CA with numbers in the 30
to 50% range, it happened all the time. There must be more to it than
water vapor.

I'm not sure what is the ideal humidity level, but our house here in
Virginia it would get down under 30% which results in lots of sparks AND
split fingers.
I try to get it nearer to 50% which seems to help both those conditions.
