It can happen for several reasons but if it's very humid I suppose it becomes more likely. Headlights are all ventilated in order to keep them from exploding due to pressure differences so they can't be air tight. But age and leaks and such can also happen, in addition to condensation.
The 09 still had the round headlights, right? You should consider an upgrade anyway, the 5.75 inch Triumph round reflectors are really bad. The cheap but quite worthwhile thing would be to get new Halogen reflectors for it, but quality this time. Like some Hella Vision Plus reflectors.

Replacing the reflectors is quite easy. You just open the headlight buckets, remove the tension clips holding the original reflector to the trim ring, put in the new reflectors and replace the clips.
More light and possibly less moisture in the headlights as well with new and higher quality units.
And of course, if you want to really improve your light output you can get 5.75 inch LED reflectors (reflectors with built-in LED that are actually legal for road use). The cost starts going up though, a 5.75 inch Vision X Vortex will set you back $400-ish (and you need two). But the light output from two of those is pretty epic, especially with the accessory that fires up both low and high beam when you go to high beam. Though, it may require some creative wiring, might not have enough space in the stock headlight buckets to wire, may have to extend them back under the tank or some such.

Edit: you can of course open the headlight bucket up, remove the lamp and then dry the reflector with compressed air or something else that blows air. But it probably won't be a permanent fix.
