This sounds like a leaky humidor. You can check the seal with a small flashlight if you dont have a glass top box. Otherwise a dollar bill can be used around the edges to check if the seal is tight. If you find a spot where the bill slips loosely, that is where you have a leak. Masking or painters tape can be used to build up the edge where it is leaking.
You also should calibrate your hygrometer if you have not done so recently.
