Sticky Ice

Why does ice stick to our fingers when we remove it from the fridge? Well, apparently it is due to humidity in the surrounding air. When the surrounding air is wet and humid, your fingers are more moist and the ice will freeze when it comes into contact with the moisture on your fingers. Fortunately, on dryer days your fingers will not be wet and the ice will not stick.
