I haven't looked much at the humidity here, but checked it out online a year or two ago when I was first beginning to explore cigars. It was recorded at 10% in my town one week and 98% the next. I don't remember getting much moisture in the winter, but in the spring I'd be getting through ten pipe cleaners in a single bowl just so as not to get a mouthful. In the end I started letting it drip out of the mouth piece with one of my pipes. I'm smoking more plugs and twists now, so maybe I just need to let them dry a bit more before smoking them.
