It doesn't affect them. Humidity & Pressure are weather connected. Once you send your birds, your bit is done. Their release in the weather conditions, is out of your hands.
Loft Humidity is more important. That YOU can control.

Below is India's 900 Mile Record Holder. Clocked in in temps of 45C with 80+ Humidity.

good little read, since i havnt been on in for ever

What I don't understand if I let my old birds out and its 90 degrees 20,25 mins flying they land n there throats are going ten to a dozen the early bred baby's the same ,then I let the 4th round baby's out that are 7,8 weeks old they go running fly for 2 hours in the heat land and there not panting there tired because wings are below tail but zero panting in extreme hot humid weather .
