Starting out the day
I woke up today, got my coffee headed into the studio, checked my hygrometer as I fanatically do: it read 48%. I knew after seeing that reading, today was going to be a perfect day.

I had to google it to find out what that even was!
Seems we’d have little need for one here along the Washington coast in November- all you have to do is look outside😀. Leaves are flyin’ and rain is fallin’, but we just can’t bring ourselves to be one of those “Arizona snowbirds”.

What type of hygrometer do you have @jumpinjeff ? I used to have to use a psychrometer every time I was in the field doing surveying when using an altimeter back in the day. That was a pain in you know where(lol). Anyways, enjoy your perfect day!

I have 4 Acurite digital hygrometers. I have them in rooms where the guitarsenals are stored and where I do a lot of playing. I also have one outside for curiosity sake. 48% is the happiest place for guitars and always what I shoot for if I am drying out or humidifying when the ambient humidity gets out of whack. Today it was perfect inside and out. No effort needed. And whether it is a coincidence or not the day actually has been exceptional so far.
You sound like you were going for precise measurements. I am too lazy for that precision. These digital ones are close enough for wood preservation.

Cool @jumpinjeff !

I do the same thing Jeff, I check all of mine as soon as I wake up in the morning and the minute I walk in the door when I return from work, sets my mind at ease.
