🇮🇳 FACTS ABOUT INDIA🇮🇳
==========================
😳WHY❓❓❓
WHY WE FEEL COOL IN WINTER
If you mean why are winters in the northern hemisphere colder when Earth is closer to the Sun it’s because the Sun is lower in the sky and the Sun’s rays are at an angle, so we receive less light and heat. Regions of earth are colder in the winter because the tilt of the earth causes the sunlight to be spread over a larger area and therefore be weaker per unit area in these regions
At the same time it is winter in the northern hemisphere it is summer in the southern hemisphere.
During winters the outside temperature is below our blood temperature and so the body tries to maintain the blood temp to 37 degrees so we feel cold.
