hygrometer

A hygrometer measures the relative humidity in the air. Relative humidity is expressed as a percentage; it compares the amount of moisture, or water vapor, in the air to the maximum amount of moisture the air can potentially hold. Relative humidity is measured on a scale of zero to 100; the higher the number, the more moisture in the air.
