That's good to know, Senior, so people can be cautious.

I just thought of something else and did a quick search to confirm it. Density of air varies with temperature, so cold air is more dense, weighs more, and contains more oxygen.

Summer weather is usually hot, so the air is less dense, weighs less, and contains less oxygen. And because it rains a lot more, the air is often humid as well.
