Natural processes by the region's ample corn crops are increasing humidity and heat indices across the Midwest.
What is corn sweat? Why does it make things hotter outside?
'Corn sweat' refers to the natural process of evapotranspiration, where water evaporates from plants into the air, increasing humidity and affecting temperature perception.
What states are most affected by corn sweat?
States with abundant corn production, particularly Iowa, show significant humidity increases due to evapotranspiration, which impacts local climate.
