Sounds like the best temporary solution, quick too. Maybe a bead of
caulking to make it water tight and some sand on it to weigh it down.

If your getting alot of rain, humidity will be present anyway. Just try
to ventilate when the weather gets better. I remember back in the '60s my
father hanging a bag of salt (about the size of a 20lb bag of potatoes)
in the basement with a pan under it. The moisture would collect in the
bag and drip into the pan. Now I don't know how effective it was, or even
if it would make for a "salty sea air" atmosphere, but thought it would
be interesting to mention.
Cheers, Con......
