Why is my throat and mouth dry most at bed time?

I am drinking water but I have a very dry throat and dry mouth, what sign is this. What is my body trying to tell me? And it is the most driest during bed time. I may wake up in the middle of the night to realize that my throat is SUPER Dry. But why? What do you think this could be a sign of?
In the wintertime, when the house is closed up tight and the heat is on, it sucks the humidity out of the air. Invest in a humidifier/vaporizer to put moisture back in the air.
Also, if you are on some medications they may be drying out your mucous areas that you breathe thru. I have dry mouth, dry eyes, dry sinuses. I can hardly breathe at night. Sometimes I have to sleep sitting up.

If you sleep with your mouth open (which most people do) your mouth will naturally get dry.
