Where did the term "under the weather" come from - not what it means.?


Question:


Answers:
This expression comes from the idea that bad weather might hurt a person's health and mood. The saying also may be related to "under the weather bow," the part of a boat that will take the force of rough seas during stormy weather resulting in seasickness.
This is the only connotation I can find as far as what this expression is all about.
