I need some help from the munitions experts on the impact of rain on Civil War munitions. How much rain does it take before munitions could not be accurately fired or fired at all?
Maybe a better question surrounds munition protection between branches of the army, IE, did the cavalry or artillery have better protection for their powder buying them more time in a rain storm?
Forgot to ask about humidity. Does high humidity impact weapons?
Thank you to all who respond.
