Why do you feel more hot and uncomfortable on a highly humid day than on a less humid day?

Answer 1

In The Online World It Says That, "Humidity is the measure of the percentage of water vaporization in the air. When there is high humidity, less sweat from your skin evaporates into the air because the air has too much water already. Sweat evaporating cools you because the process of evaporation absorbs heat from you body. Hence, you feel uncomfortable because your body cannot get rid of heat from sweat. "

Answer 2

Primarily because your body's cooling system is rendered less effective. Your body produces sweat and counts on that sweat to be evaporated (evaporation is a process that adds latent heat to the atmosphere, in the process lowering the sensible temperature). Sweat is not as easily evaporated if the air is more humid, essentially because there is more water vapor already in the air and there is no "room" for additional liquid to be evaporated into the air. Therefore, if your body can't evaporate its sweat then it won't be long before it starts to overheat.

Answer 3

Because condensation on the skin is accelerated. :)

Answer 4

When the air is humid your sweat can not evaporate effectively and as it is the evaporation of sweat that cools a human, you feel hotter when it is humid.

Answer 5

your skin collects all of the water vapor in the air, and that makes it sticky, making you uncomfortable.

Answer 6

Because there are too much water vapours in the air so our sweat doesnot evaporate and we feel very uncomfortable in hot and humid weather
