Re: ClosePosted by R. Berg on May 24, 2007 In Reply to: Re: Close posted by ESC on May 24, 2007 : : Where does the phrase "it's close" in relation to weather, come from? : My take on the word: Hot, stifling. The air isn't moving. To take it one step further: Hot and still air, especially if damp, feels oppressive, like something closing in on you. Outdoors, you feel as if you were in a closed room. ~rb
