cool change

Relief from heat

A cool change is a sudden drop in temperature, especially after hot weather.

The term is most common in Australian English, where it describes the relief that comes when a cold front moves through after scorching summer days: The cool change finally arrived around midnight.

By extension, any refreshing shift in circumstances.
