As has been pointed out, you do need a source of water. However, water temperature doesn't factor in it as long as the water isn't frozen. Just air temperature.

Who is the idiot now?

You keep digging yourself a deeper hole... My office is ~1.0 miles from the Bay. Would that constitute a source of water for you? Would you like to explain to me why the temperature here at this very moment is 95 and the humidity is only 23%? Also, we just had an unusual rain storm here just two days ago that dumped about 1/3". Are you then saying as wind passes across the Pacific and its cold water that it would pick up as much moisture as a similar wind passing across the Gulf of Mexico?

Didn't you ever count your calories in chemistry class to determine heat of reaction or to figure out heat capacities? For water it takes 1.0 cal/g to raise the temperature by one degree C. Regardless, the heat required to vaporize the water is still the same as that to boil water at the same pressure and if your water is cold it will take more heat to get it to vaporize than if it is warm.

Is this really that hard to comprehend?
