Different weather makes people feel different. It influences health, intelligence and feelings.
In August, it is very hot and wet in the southern part of the United States. People there have heart
trouble and other kinds of health problems during this month. In the Northeast and the Middle West, it
is very hot in summer and very cold in winter. People in these states have more heart trouble when the
weather changes in February or March.
The weather can also influence intelligence. For example, in a 1983 report by scientists, the IQ of a
group of students was very high when a very strong wind came, but after the strong wind, their IQ was
10% lower. The wind can help people have higher intelligence. Very hot weather, on the other hand,
can make it lower. Students in many schools in the United States often get worse on exams in the hot
months of the year (July and August).
Weather also has a strong influence on people's feelings. Winter may be a bad time for thin people.
They usually feel cold during these months. They might feel unhappy during cold weather, too. But fat
people may have a hard time in hot summer. At about 18℃, people become stronger.
Low air pressure (氣壓) may make people forgetful. People leave more bags on buses and in shops
on low-pressure days.
Are you feeling sad, tired, or forgetful today? It may be the weather's problem.
