The sweat is evaporating. Evaporation requires energy - heat. That energy is removed from the surface of your skin, and you feel the loss of energy as cold.

How your hands will feel when you place them in the container of room temperature water?

Body temperature is regulated by an intricate system called homeostasis. If the external (outside) temperature is hotter or colder than our body then various things come into play to maintain our body heat. If you put your hand into room temperature water (room temperature is generally accepted to be 20 degrees C) then it will feel cold, because body temp is about 37 degrees C. The water will absorb heat energy from your hand, making it feel cold, until the temperature of the water and the temperature of your hand are the same. Or until you decide that shoving your hand in cool water is pointless...If you put your hand into water that is at 37 degrees C then you won't notice any temperature difference. It just feels wet. It's really weird, try it!


Why are droughts cold?

Droughts are cold because air is a natural cool temperature.. in your house your temperature is normally a warm or average temperature... your body..being warm as your core body temperature, you feels droughts because the air is pushed through under your door cooling the air inside the room. It's only cold because the room is normally, nevertheless warm. Another example - if your room was freezing cold you would most probably not even feel the drought only because the room if more colder then the air behind the door. - droughts are a natural cold substance and humans core temperature does not match up to it as same with the temperature of the room. (This is my estimated answer..may need summering up)

Why does when you first step out of the shower you feel cold but as you are dry you feel warmer even though the room temperature does not change?

When you step out of the shower, your wet skin evaporates water, which absorbs heat from your body, making you feel cold. As you dry off, less water evaporates, so less heat is lost, causing you to feel warmer. Even though the room temperature remains the same, your body's heat loss changes due to the wetness of your skin.
