Sound travels faster in humid air than in dry air. This is primarily because:
Humid air is less dense than dry air.
Water vapor molecules have higher kinetic energy than nitrogen or oxygen molecules.
Humid air has more pressure than dry air.
Collisions between water vapor molecules and other air molecules enhance the propagation of sound.
