I've got a weather station outside and I use this add on to bring it into HA. We only had 79.8% coverage during the eclipse, but there was a noticeable drop in temperature!

That's a fantastic graph!

Does humidity increase with drop in temperature?

It's a weird thing I've noticed here in the northeast: there's a correlation between the two to a degree I've never seen before.

That or the humidity sensor is borked lol

The measurement of percent humidity is dependent on temperature - cold air can hold less moisture. For the same moisture content, the lower temperature will have a higher percentage of its capacity. If you want a measure that is independent of temperature, look into something like Dew Point.
