Possibly dry air/lack of humidity. I know before today when the arctic air began to finally recede, my humidifiers were working overtime. Without them, the humidity was down into the 19% range and with 3 of them going (including a big one on wheels with 2, 1.5 gal jugs), I was struggling to even hit 30% with them. Now I'm back in the 35% - 40% much better range.

Glad your fave guy is getting better.
