Why does 25° feel hotter in the UK than in India?

1.06K viewsOther

I am from India,who has shifted to the UK. It’s been 3-4 years, however UK summers feel unbearable compared to Indian summers. My skin feels like it’s burning at 25° in the UK but 25° in India is so much more pleasant. I understand that it’s closer to the sun since the earth is slightly tilted, but make it make sense that my skin burns while in the UK, but I’m just really sweaty in India, without the burning sensation.

humidity. the moisture in the air transfers heat well.

india and other areas in asia have low moisture in the air.

we were in kashmir couple years ago – 40°c there were fine, while 20!c in ireland feels like you’re dying.
