What temperature do you...

  1. 1: ...change from Winter to indoor/Summer clothing, or vice versa?
    • Where I currently live (Tennessee), an average person will do this at 59F/60F (15C).
    • However, my grandmother refuses to shed her coats unless it is at least 65F.
      • The exception is if she's working in the flowerbed, in which case 58F (14C) is fine by her.
    • Here's whether I will usually be in Winter or indoor/Summer clothing at temperatures in the 50s (degrees Fahrenheit):
      • 50F (10C)-53F (11C): Winter; I will usually try to avoid going outside at these temperatures and below.
      • 54F (12C)-56F (13C): Depends; generally Winter if the temperature is declining when I go out or it was below when I went out, or indoor/Summer if the temperature is rising when I go out or it was above when I went out.
      • 57F (13C)-59F (15C): indoor/Summer; I will usually try to go outside at these temperatures or temperatures in the 60s degrees Fahrenheit (unless it's raining, of course).
    2: ...consider the water to be warm enough to swim in?
    • Generally, the safe (and most popular, at least where I live) minimum temperature to get in is 80F (26C). This is what I go by too.
    I'm curious to see what you all answer to both of these questions. Anyways, it's 59F right now, and because it's 2:16 A.M., the temperature is dropping, so I'm going to head off. :)
  2. 1 Emm im weird and don't change from summer clothes to winter clothes (except this week for the heat wave) try and find out where that might be😁

  3. I don't wear winter clothes. :D
    Not inside, that is. I do wear jeans, usually from December to March. For the rest of the year I wear shorts. Sometimes when I'm cycling to school people yell at me, or I hear them talking about me. :D

  4. For me I usually start wearing a jacket if the temperature drops below about 20C during the day. I can usually get away without wearing anything else extra for most of winter, but I live in my jacket inside and outside.

    As for water temp, it averages around 27C during summer here, but I'd probably get in even if it were around 24C.

  5. Pakistan? Iran? The Arctic? India? Calgary? Australia? The U.S. Midwest? The Mid-Atlantic U.S.? The Northeastern U.S.? However, these are all just guesses based off of headlines.
  6. Not close but nice that you looked 😁

  7. Bump!

    Just curious, but what country (or U.S. state or Canadian Province) is it?
  8. 1. Our family turns on the a/c late-April/early-June so that's usually when I switch.
    2. 33F is cold, 50F is usually pretty good and 75F is warm-ish

  9. I wear a winter coat at -5C all the way up to 10C. Start wearing lighter jackets up to 15C and then anything above that is T Shirt weather. 25C warrants going shirtless if I'm in my own garden. Pretty sure my skin melts off at 30C.

  10. Interesting questions. :)

    1. As for my indoor clothes I wear t-shirts all year (even when it's -10 °C (14F) (on holidays), as, I mean, you're inside...) and jeans most of the year (excluding when I'm on holidays during the long summer break - I wear shorts then, and sometimes a couple weeks around that).

    Outside... depends on what I'm doing. Often the only thing I do outside on a day is cycling to school, so I'll only need something else for that: between ±13 °C (55F) and 3ish °C (37F) I wear a fleece, above that nothing extra, below that something extra (depends on the situation).
    When not cycling these temperatures go up a bit, no clue how much, I just do whatever is comfortable. :)

    2. At least 30 °C (86F), and that's probably still too cold. Basically, it's pretty much always too cold to swim outside for me.

  12. Shorts and Tee's 24/7. A foot of snow? Long shorts. 100 degrees? Short Shorts.

  13. Where I am from Canada Saskatchewan. We have nearly 80-95 degree changes(everything I say is in calcius u Americans) in the winter as soon as it hits -10 I bust out the winter coat. I usually where a sweater underneath to provide that comfort warmth feeling. When it becomes -25 avoid going outside at all costs. Those temperatures are ridiculous!!! The winter coat goes away though at around -9 then we transition to just sweaters. When it hits 10 I loose the sweater. Plus 15 is where the tee shirts and shorts are busted out. No matter how hot it is outside I savour every single moment of the beautiful weather. The weather here is as follows 8 months cold grossness 2 months of perfect temperatures. 2 months of me sun tanning in the pleasurable warm heat!
