Most likely you are not fully acclimated (=used to) the weather you are going out into. It takes ~2 weeks with time in the climate for your body to get used to it--IF you are generally healthy. If you have ongoing medical issues, you should get checked over by your Primary Care Provider first to be on the safe side.
