Default Effects of water temp on submarine conditions?

Question for any of you actual bubble-heads here, having never set foot on an active sub before please excuse my ignorance. I was just wondering if, in your knowledge/experience, conditions such as local sea temperatures have had any effect on conditions within a sub? For example if one was cruising in the comparatively warm waters of a place like the Indian Ocean or Persian Gulf could conditions aboard get noticeably stickier? Or visa versa if you were out some place like the Barents Sea would you notice not having to deal with any extra warmth?

I guess part of this would depend on the depth you were operating at. Heck, for all I know conditions in subs over the last half century are insulated enough that outside temps don't make any difference, but still thought I'd ask...
