: Why is it called a "breeze" in the summer, but a "draft" in the winter.
Just my opinion:
Here in the US of A, a breeze is something you experience out of doors or near an open window whilst a draft is more like an uncomfortable leak in an already closed room. A draft is something you try to avoid to save on your heating bills.
