Ok - so now I'm getting more puzzled by this issue.

Last night, I bought one of those digital humiity gauges. The relative humidity in my bedroom was around 44%. Not too bad. After two showers, the level went up to around 50% - again, not too shabby. This was with the dehumidifier on. After an hour or so, the level went back down to low 40%'s. Again - pretty good.

At around midnight, I turned off the dehumidifier, and the relative humidity was around 42%. No more water was run that night - in the AM, the relative humidity read 60%! Still not too too bad, but it seems like quite a jump from the night before. What gives? (It came back down to mid-40's relatively quickly by running the dehum. for an hour or so.)

As others have said - there may be humidity coming from elsewhere - time to climb up into my attic and poke around....

And per the newsradio, the relative humitidy outside is around 48% this morning.

Still confused,
-Zoltan.
