From a technical sense, its dark blue, which will basically absorb all light except blue. Water should absorb blue pretty good. So you'll have a nice water evaporator. It's good for the sinuses.

Isn't DC already super humid all the time anyway?

Super saturation! Let's aim higher!

It’s saturation like no one’s ever seen

Things that are a color don't absorb that color, otherwise, that color wouldn't be leaving the thing. A green leaf absorbs most of the visible spectrum except green. In reality it can be more complicated.
