I too am in NC and I did not add water until day 18 for my first hatch. In fact I didn't know anything about the hygrometer for the first one either. I have a LG still air incubator. For this hatch I have added the hygrometer and it is staying about 40% without any water being added. It's humid here even in the winter!
I think location and altitude play a major role in the varying answers when talking about humidity. You really have to experiment and see what works best for you.
