I don't know where those numbers came from, but look at it this way: Rain is seasonal, and even in the rainy season, it isn't continuous. Also, while the humidity level obviously rises when it rains, rain is composed of discrete drops. It seems reasonable to suspect that water *vapor* being injected into the atmosphere continuously would raise the humidity level a lot more than rain would. Depending on microclimates and local topography, could it lead to localized, per- petual rain, like in "Blade Runner?" Geoff -- "We Meldrick. Resissance is futile, yo.
