Recently, on the “Bottom Line Report” with Mark Oppold, he talked about how heat at night effects plants. That applies to people too! You’ve heard the old saying “it’s not the heat, it’s the humidity” :
Prolonged heat extremes pose a major public health threat because heat is the number one weather related killer in the U. S.. It causes more human deaths than hurricanes, tornadoes and floods combined. Various studies have also linked high temperatures to increased violence in cities, as the uncomfortable effects such as sweating, dehydration, lethargy and restless sleep, make people feel irritated and more likely to act more aggressively.
