Humid days prevent your natural cooling system, perspiration, from working effectively. Perspiration is commonly known as sweating in humans, and is our means of thermoregulation. Here, the eccrine glands secrete water from pores in the skin. Evaporation of sweat from the skin surface has a cooling effect due to evaporative cooling. During humid days, less evaporation takes place as the atmosphere is already carrying a lot of moisture. This disrupts the cooling process.

Why did agriculture become the preferred way of supplying basic human needs?
DENIUS [597]
Agriculture just became easier. It was much easier and safer than directly hunting, albeit, it wasn’t always as rewarding, but it was much more reliable. If you could hold off until the large crop was fully grown with hunting, you could rely on the large crop while waiting for the next one, and have a berth large growth. In other words, it was more reliable, easier, and could be very lucrative.
