Clueless Tortoise

Hi. I have a 6 year old Russian tortoise named Poseidon. I’ve been staying with my grandma during quarantine on the other side of the country and we safely shipped Poseidon out here about a week ago. He started sniffling and has had snot bubbles. He’s scratching a lot and is eating wayyyyy more than normal. I’m concerned it’s an RI or URTD. My grandma makes me keep him in a terrarium outside on a screened in porch. I have a thermometer and hydrometer and when the humidity gets too high I take him inside. He’s been sleeping with me inside so I can keep an eye on him at night. I thought the whistling would stop in a lower humidity environment that he’s used to, but he whistles all night. Please help. He has a vet appointment coming up but idk what to do until then.
