You guys in the States all seem to need to humidify your instruments - having to add moisture.  I have the opposite problem. 

I've had to empty my DEhumidifier 3 times (about 3/4 gallon each time) in the last 18 hours - an approaching cyclone (a Southern Hemisphere hurricane) isn't helping.

Location: Boise, Idaho		We used to have a dehumidifier when we lived in Wisconsin. It was one of my chores as a kid to empty it and if I waited too long it was all I could do to lift the basin and dump it out. I got in real trouble if I forgot and it overflowed. I'm sure the modern ones have some sort of shut off.

Location: NJ		depending on your type of head and the temp outside the humidy can get real low. I start to freak under 30 percent and start filling up the humidifiers.

Location: Latitude 39.56819, Longitude -105.080066		We start at about 35% and go down from there.
It was quite a change from when I lived in Houston on the gulf coast.
