The literature indicates(e.g., McCarthy, pp. 46-48 )that the relationship between high frequency losses and environmental conditions involves an interaction between humidity and temperature. In some cases higher humidity results in less high frequency attenuation.

OK, I'll show my ignorance and ask what is attenuation? It never hurts to learn something new,

Adding wetness to the sound often leaves streaks in your underwear.
