Stuffy Sound?

Author: Ben Shaffer

I'm an Adult learner and have been playing the Clarinet under a year. My main Horn is a Wood Normandy 4. The Horn generally sounds pretty clear when playing. The last day we've gotten some rain here in NC. The Humidity is pretty high with impending Rain.
My Clarinet now seems to have for want of a better word a bit of a stuffy sound. Ive been very vigilant about drying the bore as well as using a host of different reeds.... but it just doesn't sound as " clear" as it usually does... so is it likely the Humidity causing this? something else maybe?
Ive allowed a bit of time between playing sessions as well
