When I worked for the K State research station at Garden City, KS, one of my duties was to daily record ppt, temp, dew point and wind velocity. I did that for 19 years, so I am still pretty much aware of climatic conditions. 90-100% humidity was fairly common early in the morning, it usually dropped down to 10-20% in the afternoon in the summer, in the winter humidity could be low or high for extended periods of time. Where I have noticed rust is under the valve cover of my 460, when I was working on other parts of the tractor. Likely there on my other tractors.

I don't multi-task very well.
