Hello, Jim! I live in a frigid climate in the winter (northern Minnesota), where yesterday morning it was -22 Farenheit ( it would be much worse, if you enter the wind chill factor). I always have to have a humidifier stoked. In the winter, if I can keep it at 40% humidity, I am happy, and my lutes also seem to be so.
Happy Holidays to you, and all! ed > Also, on a completely different matter. When the outdoor weather= dips > below freezing and the humidity drops, I turn on my humidifier.
