I never understood how someone could dislike low humidity. I have never felt or noticed any ill physiological effects from low humidity. Low humidity is great. High humidity is disgusting.

When humidity goes, so does warmth -not groovy.

Insides and hands feel dried out at extremely low humidities.

You can have humidity changes without warmth changes.

I just never noticed any problems resulting from low humidity. I don't tend to think about humidity when it's low.

Low humidity is wonderful during the summer.

Winters can get rough sometimes though with dry skin and thirst, though it may partially have to do with indoor heating.

I will never have a problem with low humidity itself. Drought is irritating, but the humidity doesn't have to be low for that to happen.

I was mostly thinking of winter indoors; we don't really get relative humidity low enough for it to be annoying outside.
