Default Storage Humidity

I have had a lot of problems recently with extremely dry corks. I live in
the desert (Las Vegas) and the humidity is extremely low. I have a
hygrometer in my cellar and it recently read 45%. What should I do about
this problem. Last night we had a 1996 Duhart Milon and the cork crumbled.
The wine was quite good, just the cork was terrible.

Fred.
