Weather and detonanion

On a blown motor, what combinations of weather promote detonation and what makes it less of a problem.

Humidity? Water injection works, Does humidity do the same thing?

Temp? IE Is summer more of a problem than winter?

Altitude? Does sea level compared to Denver make a differance.

TIme at that load? IE is towing compared to drag racing an issue or is it the amound of time and outside noise making it easier to hear.

Rpm? IE tip into the gas right before the downshift compared to high rmp right before the upshift.


Just wondering given the Gas may be changing and we all may be at the edge of detonation.

Does the lack of posts to this question mean that nobody knows or nobody cares? I am getting concerned as the humidity is getting near 90% and afternoon highs are getting around 100.
