For more information on guitar strings, maintenance, and how humidity affects your guitar, see the sources, below.This subreddit is for those wishing to discuss electronic dance music production. Problems keeping your guitar in tune is a classic sign of strings that have lost their resilience and should be replaced. The other problem you may have is old strings. In general, keep your guitar in a stable environment whenever possible. The joints, glue, braces, and other parts of your instrument are also affected. In addition to the problem you've already noticed (the stretching and relaxing of your strings caused by the body expansion and contraction) repeated temperature and humidity cause other problems. The more stable the environment, the happier your instrument will be. I'm not recommending that you subject your guitar to such tests, by the way. If you'd left it in the same spot in your own home, it would probably be fine. Let your guitar sit for a about an hour and chances are it will need to be tuned again. This is easily demonstrated if you ever tune up then immediately drive to someone else's home. Temperature and humidity cause the wood components of your instrument to expand and contract.

Yes, both temperature and humidity affect your guitar tuning, but they may not be the only cause of the problem you describe.
