‘Fine Season’
The ‘fine seasons’ bid the bounteous atmosphere for suicide: “Neither in winter or autumn does suicide reach its maximum, but during the fine seasons when nature is most smiling and the temperature is mildest. Man prefers to abandon life when it is least difficult.” Accordingly, extraordinary frequencies of suicide should be awaited during the "warmest months (from March to August Inclusive).” Durkheim contends that the law of ‘fine season’ is germane to all countries; hence, it is universal, subject to the seasons of exclusive, separate countries.
Heat
Heat is an outright stimulator of suicide: “From these incontestable facts, Ferri and Morselli have concluded that temperature had a direct influence on the tendency to suicide; that heat by its mechanical action on the cerebral functions stimulated a person to suicide.” The heat is a cogent catalyst that fuels the brain’s proneness to suicide.
