I live in beautiful East Texas where it gets plenty warm, but it also always stays very humid too. My question is, in a place where it is 90 degrees and about 80% relative humidity, how bad is it to leave a solid ukulele in the car. Of course, I must point out that in the heat of summer, it will get to be about 140 degrees in a car, making the relative humidity closer to 50% relative humidity. There are lots of old wive's tales out there that say you should never do this or do that, but until Mythbusters takes it up we never know for sure. If anyone has had bad experience with hot, humid weather, I would love to hear about it.
I know it isn't ideal, but there are times like this weekend where I am travelling to a disc golf tournament and I want to bring a ukulele with me to play during my spare time, but surely don't want to if it is going to get destroyed in my car.
As a followup, am I right to assume that laminate ukuleles behave much better in such environments?
