## Resource

Missouri’s sticky summers just got a weird new explanation: corn sweat. Those humid days? Blame the state’s massive cornfields releasing water vapor through evapotranspiration. But don’t panic—plants only contribute about 10% of the humidity; the real heat wave culprit is a stubborn high-pressure system hovering over the Midwest. Want relief? Seal your home, open windows early, use fans, and maybe even a dehumidifier. Stay cool, stay smart.
