Wondering about the weather?

The Psychologist this Summer summed up some interesting recent research on the weather and perhaps this is salient to us Brits as we often have four seasons in one day!

  1. People are more likely to get road rage when it is hot.
  2. Judges give out harsher sentences when it is hot.
  3. Older people are more affected by hot days and nights, because their ability to regulate their body temperature goes down.
  4. Children born in the Summer can be more outgoing.
  5. We remember things better when it is raining!
