Worse in cold weather? I thought conductors get more efficient the colder they get (or is cold relative to humans insignificant to high voltage lines)?

- ahmedfromtunis 3y agoI forgot the details but I remember it's something about humidity in the air. I recall however that I read about a blue halo forming around some cables in snowy nights as electricity charges the air surrounding said cables. This phenomenon was a huge source of losses in transport cables.
