Why are there sudden changes of temperature when you’re walking near a running body of water?

Thermodynamics
dG=dH-dTS
Evaporation is happening near the body of water. That is water molecules going from an ordered state in the water to a more chaotic state. That change in organization results in a change in temperature.
By the equation of thermodynamics, change in temperature (dT) is inversely proportional to the change in entropy (dH).
