EXPLAINER

Smell & Weather

Rain, heat, cold, humidity and wind can transform which smells become noticeable and how they travel.

01

Rain reveals surfaces

Wet stone, soil, concrete and vegetation can become more prominent after rainfall.

02

Heat changes intensity

Sun-warmed pavement, plants, food and materials can feel stronger or qualitatively different.

03

Cold changes the scene

Snow and cold air often produce a sparser smell environment with different expectations and routines.

BOUNDARY

Weather routes describe sensory context; they are not meteorological measurements.
