is a cloud wet?

[-] funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 days ago

a cloud is (basically not exactly) "steam" - steam makes things wet when it condenses into water

(clouds of water on Earth at least, not Venusian clouds of Sulphur for eg)

The word you might be looking for is vapor.

Clouds are water vapor.

[-] funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 days ago

yes but I didn't want to get dragged into whether vapor was wet.

[-] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 days ago

It's not solid, so no. It's humid.

[-] TriflingToad@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 days ago

does that also classify as moist?

[-] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 days ago

Yes, moist can mean humid.
