That depends. In colder climates, indoor is very dry in the winter 
(because outdoor air is warmed up, meaning relative humidity drops a lot). 
So indoors the summer is typically more humid compared to winter.

In warmer climate it can be the other way around, because AC lowers 
humidity. So the warmer it is outside, the dryer climate indoors because 
of AC use.
