Comparative form of balmy; warmer, more pleasant, or more soothing than something else; or slightly crazier (British slang).
Comparative form of 'balmy,' from 'balm' (a soothing ointment or mild, pleasant air) plus the comparative suffix '-er.' In British slang, 'balmy' means foolish, so 'balmier' means more foolish.
This word has a split personality—to an American in winter it means 'delightfully warm weather,' but to a British person it might mean 'you're being balmier than usual' (crazier). Same word, completely different contexts!
