Answer:

The correct answer is: Norfolk is less humid and has higher precipitation than San Francisco.

Step-by-step explanation:

Norfolk, Virginia has an average relative humidity of 69.1% per year, while San Francisco stands at 75% per year, therefore Norfolk is less humid than San Francisco.

Norfolk also has a yearly average precipitation of 46.53 inches, while San Francisco has a yearly average precipiation of 23.65 inches. This means that in Norfolk it rains twice as much as in San Francisco.
