I can believe that, here in the north it is the vast changes in temperature over the time frame of a year that causes the condensation. I grew up on the east coast of Canada in Nova Scotia.

The worst I ever saw was -30F at 6am, at 6 pm +45F. 75 degrees F in 12 hours was not the norm. However when you entered the tractor shed at 6 pm tractors look like they have been rained on all day, just from frost coming out of steel. 30 degree fluxuation was common. Humidity tended to be high in that area also, but fluxuating temperature and high humidity make for a bad combination.
