If you hop into an outdoor swimming pool on a summer day in Phoenix, you will probably find that the water is too warm to be very refreshing. However, when you get out of the pool and let the sun dry you off, you find that you are quite cold for a few minutes. How can you explain this? The water is evaporating off of your skin. This means that enough heat (or energy) is entering the water drops to break bonds between water and allow them to evaporate. Where is this heat coming from? Your body! Heat flows from your body to the drops of water, making you feel cooler. When the water is gone, no more heat will flow from your body and you will get hot once
