(Meaning from Wikipedia):
Humidity
Humidity is a term for the amount of water vapor in the air, and can refer to any one of several
measurements of humidity. Formally, humid air is not "moist air" but a mixture of water vapor
and other constituents of air, and humidity is defined in terms of the water content of this
mixture, called the Absolute humidity. In everyday usage, it commonly refers to relative
humidity, expressed as a percent in weather forecasts and on household humidistats; it is so
called because it measures the current absolute humidity relative to the maximum. Specific
humidity is a ratio of the water vapor content of the mixture to the dry air content (on a mass
basis). The water vapor content of the mixture can be measured either as mass per volume or as a
partial pressure, depending on the usage.
