Dehumidifiers in Observatories

The South Coast NSW is being hammered by heavy rain at the moment and will continue until the weekend.As my Nexdome Obs is water proof from the Dome down to the walls to the base , I’ve noticed a lot of moisture on the floor , the mount and tripod legs ( scope is dry )
I’m thinking a dehumidifier plugged in during inclement weather may reduce the amount of condensation ( rising damp ) in my Obs.
I welcome advice from folk who have had similar issues and how they minimised their moisture problems
Thanks
