this is a good question. Really really really really good question. It has a covalent bond, and its in liquid form, solid, and gaseous form. Water is like any other compound. Basically you have to ask yourself are liquids wet. Which I dont know. Water however, is very special. It might even be an alien substance.

Actually, not necessarily. To start we must define what exactly "wet" means. Namely, my definition would be: wet, adj. describing something soaked, saturated, covered, drenched or moistened with a liquid.
Many people simply assume that water is a liquid, which is obviously not true. The state of water can be a solid, liquid, gas, or supercritical fluid (where there is no distinction between liquids and gases) and the said state is dependent on temperature and pressure. Therefore water is not necessarily wet.

Well it depends. Water is wet when its in liquid form. When its ice its not wet (unless its melting). When it evaporates its not wet.So I guess it depends on its stage.
