gaps in hardwood floor

We had site-finished brazilian cherry floors put in last year in March or April, 1600 square feet - the whole top floor of our house. All of the boards run vertically. In the last two months, we have noticed some gaps in the floors that do not seem to be growing or decreasing. We live in the San Francisco Bay Area; humidity is not generally a problem here in the summer. It's warm, but dry. This winter was really wet, though. Is this okay, normal, to be expected? Should I do something about it, or just wait and see? I called the installer and he said that it was likely humidity? Does this sound right? We don't seem to be getting a whole lot more, but any seem like too many to me! Should I expect more? Thanks for any/all help!!
