> For both cities, humidity is relatively uniform year round.

There is no way humidity is relatively uniform year round in NYC. It gets very humid during the summer and very dry during the winter.




The relative humidity in NYC does not vary much from 60-65%. Absolute humidity is measured as grams water per cubic meter and is virtually never reported because what is relevant to human comfort is evaporation.

Indoor humidity in the winter is generally low because increasing the temperature without adding moisture is lowers relative humidy.

That's indoors. Outdoors, both cities are next to oceans, which tends to stabilize humidity.
