Resumen de Workers warm up big cities on weekdays
It's going to be hot in the city--until the weekend. The crowds of commuters that pour in during the week can raise local air temperatures and alter wind, rain and clouds. Heat generated by human bodies, cars, public transport and office buildings causes cities to gradually warm up from Monday through to Friday. The temperature then drops over the weekend. A recent study led by Nick Earl at the University of Melbourne Australia, shows that the average morning temperature in Melbourne is 0.3°C hotter on Thursdays and Fridays than on Sundays.
