You are confusing lift with traction,
where there is more traction when it's dry.


Water is a most interesting substance, and
has matter of factly many, many phases,
besides our usual water, ice, and steam.

These are usually at extremely high and
low temperature regimes, as of the super
cooled water, and live steam.

There are many an engineering and steam-
fitter's handbook with quite the few many
charts as to the behavior of water under
temperature and pressure.

In the biological realm, hydrophilicity
and the ubiquity of water as the universal
solvent is a critical component as the
medium of most molecular reactions and
molecular mechanics in respiratory cycles
and the structural folding mechanics of
proteins.

The hydrogen bond as under van der Waal's
is a weak agglomeration as of liquids, vis-
a-vis, gases, where it is a usual course
that stochastic motion as imparted by the
energy or heat of the particles leaves
them variously set and jostled.

These bonds aren't as strong as molecular
bonds as usually define molecules and thusly
their molecular or chemical properties, in
terms of the chemical elements.  They are
moreso simply the establishment of phase
(material phase) in terms of settings of
uniform media, and various aggregates,
solutions, mixes, dispersions, and such.
