Question:

During summer, if you go near the lake, you feel relief from heat. Why?

Solution:

During day time, air over the land becomes heated up, rises upward and creates an area of low pressure. Lake water is not heated up so quickly. Evaporation of water from its surface also cools it up. Therefore, air over the surface of lake is cooler. It moves towards the land where low pressure exists. Therefore, during day dme a cool breeze flows from lake to the land nearby.
