Hm, I don't know how humidity affects FE, but low temperature and wet roads hurt it (rolling resistance gets higher too). Wind is even worse. I can clearly see that I can't coast as long as I usually do (at the same places on my commute)!
Extra weight counts too - my last 100% 2-up tanks reached a disappointing 3.2l/100km (~73mpgUS).
