Does Climate Affect The Severity Of Sleep Apnea?

Six months ago my son started snoring very louad and had dificulty breathing at nights. We could see his chest sucking and he sweats a lot. My son was supposed to has his tonsils removed because he suffer from sleep apnea. His breathing stops 5.5 times per hour for 10 seconds. We had to travel to QAtar. Since we came his breathing is much much better. Most of the nights he sleeps normally no snoring and breaths normally. Others nights he breaths with dificulty but not ad much as back home
