why do people living in coastal area feel very hot and sticky during summer ??
Answers
Explanation:
Normally our weather, notably rain, comes from the oceans. The sun heats ocean waters causing warm water to rise. As this warm water rises it pushes cold water out of the way and currents develop. Then the rising hot air containing moisture rises and displaces cooler air. This creates air currents that develop into winds. Winds blow the warm, moisture rich air over the land mass where it cools and falls as rain or mountain ranges push the moisture rich air higher until it falls and runs down the mountain back to the sea.
The further inland you go, the harder it is for moisture rich air to travel before it drops it moisture as rain. More moisture means greater humidity.

Humidity is the amount of moisture in the air, also known as Absolute Humidity. The hotter the air is, the more moisture it can hold in the form of water vapour. Relative humidity - expressed as a percent - is defined as the ratio of water vapour in a certain volume of moist air at a given temperature to the mass of water vapour in the same volume of saturated air at the same temperature.
It isn’t always, it depends on if the moist air is blowing in from the ocean or dry air is blowing out from the land. Also, in winter if the water is frozen over, it behaves like land.
