Yup, sounds right to me - but nevertheless, when I drive to work on a cool morning with a higher than average humidity, my engine subjectively runs smoother and crisper than on a hot summer's day.

I had always put that down to cold damp air being denser and allowing the ECU to bung in an extra dollop of petrol to take advantage of the extra oxygen available.
