I usually hear this from cowboys in televisions. It is kind of similar to the "Aloha" of Hawaii which means "Hello" or "Hi". Though, Aloha contains a deeper meaning. Basically, Howdy means Hello.

Howdy сокращение от How do you do(Как дела, как жизнь) используется как приветствие. Считается деревенским словечком присущим фермерскому югу и ковбойскому западу штатов.

Yes, “howdy” functions like “hi” and I think is a condensed form of “how do you do”. You’ll hear it often in cowboy themed shows and movies, but it’s not uncommon to hear it used in some parts of the modern day U.S. South.
