“YOU’RE hot and you’re cold.”
Katy Perry sang those lyrics about a roller coaster relationship in her 2008 track, but it also aptly describes the current weather situation in the Hawkesbury region.
There has been a significant rise and fall each day in temperatures since the start of October (source: Weather Zone).
So what does this mean for us? Besides having to grab an extra blanket or ditch a jacket?
According to Weather.com, a change in weather can lead to several changes to a person’s health or behaviour pattern.
These include a rise or fall in blood pressure, a change in mental health, increased vulnerability to asthma and headaches.
So stay safe out there as the weather continues to fluctuate – October is proving to be an interesting ride.
