I'm sure they do, Bluedude. Humidity is definitely the biggest factor in carb ice- I remember those graphs that show carb ice danger at temps of 20c when the humidity is high enough; basically the more humid the air, the further from freezing (above or below) carb ice can happen. I'd wager that at this moment the risk of carb ice is higher in Florida than it is in Toronto. If any of the scientifically inclined out there wish to sponsor me on an expedition to test the hypothesis I suppose I could make the effort All in the name of research, of course
