Why Humidity Makes You Feel Hotter

- Ever wondered why weather forecasters give you a "feels like" temperature? Humidity can change how hot you actually feel. Your body uses sweat to cool itself off. However, on humid days, your body doesn't efficiently rid itself of sweat and heat, creating a higher risk of heat stroke.

This is why I hate summer weather. "Go out and enjoy the weather". ITS FUCKING HOT!!!! How can I enjoy sweating my balls off, having to take 3 showers a day, mosquito's everywhere, humidity, and high temperatures?! FUCK SUMMER! 😡
John Smith Go to California. It's still hot but there's usually low humidity
116f in Las Vegas. I am not leaving this house.
Taco Shuriken Florida has the craziest weather. One minute its sunny, the next there's a flash flood, then a moment later, its sunny again, as if nothing happened!
No don't come to California. I live in Oroville and we just got done fighting a giant wall fire... Dry hot air sucks too. Plus the sun on your skin feels like a goddamn heat lamp held an inch away... Winters tho... Winters here are nice
I also grew up in a town called Vero Beach in Florida. I've felt both sides of the spectrum... Heat just sucks period!
Ahhh now it makes sense why there’s a “Feels like” value in any weather app. Thank you for the explanation.
Celcius!!! Everyone oudside the u.s uses celsius!
Hell, I live in the U.S. and I use Celsius.
The Truth From Farenheit to Celsius: C= F-32 and then divide the result by 1.8 and there you have it.
WHO TH EFUCK WANTS TO DO DAT
Why be like everyone else? Be a leader not a follower :D
In the example they used 31 c feels like 43 c
because in humidity you are actually walking around the air filled with warm water. it's actually impossible to live without air conditioner on a place with extreme humid and extreme damp conditions
That's why the South is secretly Hell.
88°F = 31.111°C
110°F = 43.333°C
Marshal Pandemic here at the middle east it's 46 Celsius at night
EVERYDAY
People can't use google conversion anymore? Lazy idiots.
I don't have the same experience. On "hot, sweaty days" polyester or other synthetics make me feel hotter because they don't breathe as well as 100% cotton. The exception is when the synthetic-composed shirt is literally thinner and tighter in fit compared to an average cotton shirt.
Ou8y2k2 and they stink fast too!
Definitely would not prefer 100% cotton when it feels like 116
Metric system please.
Hiréka Éric NO
Are you lazy? Google is your friend, you dunce. I've already had to do conversions the other way around.
How about use what the whole rest of the world uses (Celsius)
an american channel makes a video directed towards an american audience and you expect them to use celsius lol
I'm glad there's a force that makes us feel warm contrary to the wind that chills the hell out of us.
wouldnt polyester also trap the sweat inside?
Because we regulate our heat by sweating, when the sweat evaporates it carries heat away with it, in humid climes the sweat cant evaporate as easily and the heat stays.
i honestly thought everyone with a ninth grade education knew that.
@Central Based Agency go be a degenerate racist garbage person on someone elses comment you rat
Didn't learn that in 9th grade, it took Google for me to figure that out lol. Doing quite alright now though. All we knew was humid = feels hotter.
I luv winter
Miliazy Channel I luv winter 2
DestMint - Gaming That's ok. I remember when I was a kid I was able to wear a sweater without sweating intensely in the summer
Me too!
Took me 25 years to finally understand this
Just use metric numbers.
Frostyy No
Frostyy no
Just use google, you lazy dumbf***. I already did that before.
Old news after having been a part of my high school marching band!
Hey. Join the world. Use Celcius.
peesemould Nah
How about you put some people on the moon
nagonzo how about you thank us for inventing the physics you used to put a man to the moon? and also why don't you send a probe as far as voyager 1 and 2 also since we're talking about what you haven't achieved
You do realize NASA uses metric ?
ZockerTwins NASA starting transitioning to metric in the 1980s, and the first moon landing was in 1969. Even now, some NASA projects still use English units
The problem with polyester is that it’s retains odor which makes it horrible as an undershirt and why you usually clean it first day after working out.
I've lived in Houston,Tx since the 70's. It's fucking hot and humid here and I want out!
I live in Florida. Just say'n...
You have fans from different continents, you know, so adding the Celsius and the Metric system would be appreciated, thanks.
I love New England but in the summer it turns into Florida and I CANT STAND IT. I could deal with the heat if it wasn't so goddamn humid!
Don’t wear cotton but wear polyester?? Say that to the people who live in the most south of south who only wear light cotton and linen because polyester is impossible to handle during hot weather.
This should be common knowledge.
lol the temp in my country is always a minimum of 90 farenheit and here they are saying 110 "hurts"
And I'm just here in Colorado enjoying the 80 degree weather with humidity under 40%
0:22 That is wrong. Sweating is controlled by the brain. Sweating occurs when the hypothalamus (human body's thermostat) in the brain activates sweat glands to release sweat so that the sweat can evaporate and cool the body.
All these people complaining about not using the metric system: Learn to convert quickly! I can switch from F to C and C to F in a matter of seconds. It's like the opposite of burger king: You can't always have it your way.
Florida in a nutshell.
YES
I hate humidity. Makes my face get oily very quick then i break out with acne day or two after.
"it's going to feel a whopping 110 F!" The place where I live is 110F(43 C)😂😂
If you've ever lived in a hot humid climate you'll take 110 dry over feels like 110 from humidity lol . That humidity is no joke.
@@christru22 ifkr pair that with scolding hot sun and you've got a recipe for a shitty day
Fahrenheit to Celsius: Minus 28 then divide by 2. easy :)

Lmao people are trying to tell an American channel to use international measurements
when u live near the equator where it's always 90%+ humidity year round n u see people complaining about it when they only experience it for only 3 months
Same thing people in cold climates say about us when we complain about what we consider to be cold for 1 month out of the year.
@crazydrummer181 no we don't complain about winter , winter isn't that cold in equator region , we love winter.
@@pablo_Esciccha I’m a bit north of the equator so it probably gets a little colder where I live. That must be great though
I used to live in tropical region and the reason it feels so hot in northern country because the buildings and infrastructure are not meant to cool people who live inside. In tropical area the house can easily be cool down without AC but in the northern hemisphere homes were built with insulation in mind, so during the summer the heat can't escape. Also many places including schools and public transport have no AC unlike hot and humid country
38 'c and above with more than 80% humidity that how it is in Chennai. People here bath twice to remove heat and sweat that adds up in Body
As my Adventure guide once said, "Cotton kills."
who else misses winter
meeee😢😢😢
In the morning(winter) it used to be 9 C and now it's 43 C😡
When you know more about humidity but it's still hot af😩
Well a reason to go off my home at 00:38 am.Damn son!!!!!
0:34 ew wtf
That's why Singapore feels hotter than the Sarahan dessert......
1:23 I'm in the Southern Hemisphere.. ;(
It's winter
Telebubbies This channel is based in the US
Just reminds me why I hate Florida, always over 90% humidity..
same ,over here
FLORIDA VS JAPAN!
30 C VS 35 C
75% VS 90%
I live in the tropics with the humidity is between 70-90% everyday
88 degrees to 110 degrees??
Damm! thats hell on earth!
I'm complaining because of 38 degrees here in Spain... but at 110 I'm sure you guys are boiling in America.
In Vegas it gets to 110f with little humidity
That moment that i live in Indonesia and our humidity rate is always more than 80% lol
I see. Thank you
Why don't you also put the corresponding measurements in metric, that way everyone understands what you are talking about
Good to know
That's why winter is my favorite season
Winter is worst it makes your skin so dry and aging
@@edmontvedmontv746 Dry skin is better than sweaty skin
That "feels like" part of the weather forecast is new to me I live in Ireland 😂
she told me to get out , someone help me translate ;3;
1:08 I live in Dallas!
My daily Houstonian life
oklahoma always feels like a rainforest during summer
WELL I LIVE IN ESTON IA AND THERE ARE NO HOTTER DAYS THEN 25DEGREES CELSIUS BUT SUN SUPER STRONG SO IT FEELS NORMAL WHEN ITS 13 DEGREES WIHT SUN
I am living in a city where june avg temp is 48 and July - sep avg temp is 37 with high humidity so(Sargodha Pakistan) i am always sweating in that 3 months and inly AC gives me peace then.♨️
In Malaysia the humidity is over 70%
Now why does it feel colder when its humid in the winter....
At 1:04 I see my city DENTON TX
My region has a humidity index of 97% all the time
now explain humidity during winter, ha , checkmate !
im sorry but what is fahrenheit?
What if I wear silk?
Inilah masalah Malaysia, terlalu tinggi humidity kerana banyak hutan simpan di tengah-tengah Malaysia
Great Explanation 👍
Miami's HEAT !
why time is feel faster
Still not sure if it "feels" hotter or literally makes you hotter.
Awesome channel... subscribed
am i the only one who noticed the mormon missionaries piggin out on cupcakes in the thumbnail?
thanks for this knowledge
I live in a jungle somewhere in south-east Asia...
Polyester makes a nice clingy skin peeler if electrified-- Just a heads up.
< meanwhile living in the equator where the only weather is scorching hot or flash flood storm
thanks for the video gonna wear poly now
I my country humidity is always at 90 % or 100% 😃😃
Thankfully, there's basically no humidity in California. Also, the Pacific Ocean's cold breeze cools everything down. Nevertheless, Winter is better. 🤘👌
Dear god….not polyester 🤣
Wear linen !
It'll take more than polyester to wick away my tsunami of sweat. Where do you think it will wick it away to?
when you see where you live in the video and you know the pain lol
No celsius? What is this, the 1400s?
What the fuck didn't everyone already learn this sweat has no space to evaporate as its too humid
Sweat-wicking sportswear
At least add annotation if you use Imperial units. TH-cam is whole world, not just America
Literally middleschool science... How low can this channel get?
This is why I hate Florida
You can use those retaded imperial Fahrenheit shit.
But please, just convert it via Google and put the celsius on the screen as well.
It's easier if you do it once than 10.000 people do it.
The Sun May Be Hot But I'm Hotter
Polyester is plastic fibers. You want to wear plastic in humid weather? You go right ahead.
When is is humid I do notice more girls lookin at me
of course it is hot at 88°C....
time for everyone to wear Spandex!
anybody mad about the Fahrenheit thing is just jealous because we have our own temperature measuring system and the rest of the world has to use "Celsius"
My armpit smell very nice when it sweats.
Waitaminute. "Get out thar and enjoy the summer days"? How about "Stay in the air conditioning and avoid the summer mugginess" instade.
pine apple
Nice
International system would have been appreciated...
