In the specific example given, I would consider this outside and a damp location simply due to the fact it is not within the protected envelope. As for a crawl space, the location could be both damp or dry depending on existing conditions but in the OP's question being one that it is outside and two being outside yet covered is still a damp location.
Location, Damp. Locations protected from weather and
not subject to saturation with water or other liquids but
subject to moderate degrees of moisture. Examples of such
locations include partially protected locations under canopies,
marquees, roofed open porches, and like locations,
and interior locations subject to moderate degrees of moisture,
such as some basements, some barns, and some coldstorage
warehouses.
Yeah....I would call it a damp location before I would call it a dry or wet location if I had to make the call. It has the twofecta going for it...Outside and Damp Location.....
