Oh, humidity measures the amount of water vapor in the air! It's like a hydration level for the atmosphere. Just like we need to drink water to stay quenched, the air needs some H2O to stay hydrated too! So, think of humidity as the air's way of saying, "I'm feeling a little moist today!" It's an important factor to consider when it comes to predicting wildfires.

The correct answer is: the amount of water vapor in the air.
