Crossword Genius

Owing to condensation, say (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

due

'owing' is the definition.
(similar in meaning)

'condensation say' is the wordplay.
'condensation' becomes 'dew' (dew is a kind of condensation).
'say' indicates a 'sounds like' (homophone) clue.
'dew' is a homophone of 'DUE'.

'to' is the link.

(Other definitions for due that I've seen before include "Deserved or unpaid" , "Proper, appropriate" , "Unpaid or expected" , "Outstanding" , "Expected, scheduled" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
