Question Mist in interior air vents

Does anyone else get mist coming in from the air vents, specially when the humidity is high and turning on the AC. Whenever I turn on the AC I get a fine minst coming from my vents for a few seconds. I know the AC takes moisture from the air but I've never had a car that mists. The AC works great and I think it's kind of nice but just wondering why.

It's cold dry air mixing with warn moist air. That creates mist.

Consider yourself lucky that you can actually do that right now... We're on the verge of using the other end (the red one) of the temperature knob spectrum. Not cool.

I had that happen the first time I drove the car home after I bought it. It's just happens in places with high humidity, and in Ontario we do tend to get that. No worries!
