Words damp, wet, humid

Hi everybody!

Couls you tell me please what the difference between
damp
wet
humid
?

Are they mean the same? I've seen humid only several times, is it rarely used? Maybe it is possible to say humid weather and impossible to say humid boy/car/etc.?

Maybe there are any other words with the same meaning that are used often?

Thanks in advance!
