62f = t shirt and shorts weather (MAYBE long pants if it's cloudy). Where the hell do you guys live that you need to wear a sweatshirt for that kind of weather?

In beautiful Southern California, It's in the 70's here in the winter. 62 won't be cold for somebody stuck in Chicago. But we have beautiful warm weather. 62's cold for my blood.

What a bunch of pussies (must be the tender-footed Millennials talking...).

62F is shorts, short sleeve and sandals weather.

BTW, I live in N. CA...not a Wisconsinite, who would likely find this temperature even more balmy than me.


......And about that finance dude, he's a douche. I ran into this species a lot in my Ivy league MBA finance classes.

62 is cool, not cold you fucking wusses.

Sorry but some people prefer to live in mild temps where it doesn't get super cold or super hot.

62 is 30 degrees above freezing. That is mild. Judging by your username may I assume you to be an anorexic southern Californian?

EDIT: Los Angeles, haha, you are a pussy. Get some body fat and hair.

I agree completely...but you and I aren't from the "tropics," we live in "NORTHERN Kahleeforneeya."

I'm in shorts and t-shirt all the time here, usually from late March to mid November...and no shoes, only sandals/flip-flops.

I know a few Hawaiian natives however who have their heavy winter coats out when the weather gets into the 60's...When we hit Maui in December, the locals often are bundled up like it's sub-zero...and the tourists are still enjoying the weather when it's in the 60's.:biggrin:

WTH would anyone want bodyfat?

I only have/want the amount that is necessary to survive, thank you. ;)

Here in NW Ohio, if it's 60ºF in the fall, I'm wearing jeans and probably a t-shirt.

If it's 60ºF in the spring, I might be wearing shorts. If I have to start the day when it's cooler still, but will reach 60 or higher, I'll often wear shorts and my summer hoodie. Same thing on summer nights when it dips to low 60s or so, I'll put my summer hoodie on.

It all depends on which end of the temperature spectrum I've gotten used to at the time. 60 can be cool or warm, depending on which season it is; getting used to below-freezing temps, 50s+ is very comfortable. Summer temps of 80s and 90s, the 60s feel kind of chilly.

I like wearing jeans, so I really like fall here in Ohio because I can typically wear jeans and a tshirt for most of the season.

In any region during the winter, you can always tell the difference between recent transplants or tourists, and the locals. Locals are typically wearing their warmer clothes for winter, and the non-locals are wearing either light clothing, or are bundled up even more than the locals.

It takes a few years, at the minimum, for the body to really adjust to local climates.

Whenever I see people wearing jeans when it's 90ºF, I kind of start sweating for those people - too heavy of clothing for that weather (and hell, I kind of get used to those temps during the summer)... but some people don't have any problem with dressing like that.

But hell, when we have high summer temps like that, I sweat just standing around. My body refuses to get acclimated to warm weather like that, even being a fit and lean guy.
When I was in S.C. for training one summer, we were all wearing full the full ACU, and I was basically pouring sweat on my face. The guys all said "stop sweating".. and I'm like "how the fuck do I do that?" Shit sucks, I hate when my body just starts making a waterfall on my forehead. But hell, I can do that in the winter too - as soon as I start shoveling snow, drip drip drip.

Reminds me of someone in my intro to Political Science class. He would badger the teacher at least once a week to disclose her personal political beliefs by asking some nonsensical question and then saying it was necessary to know her political leaning to answer it. She'd just tell him that if he had some issue with the course to state it which he always would make some snide comment and then shut up for another week. He made them use his full name when calling attendence and always had a pencil behind his ear.

Other than that and maybe one or two others that I can't even remember much of. Even the art classes I took weren't bad. There were some hipsters in there but they weren't openly pretentious and everyone got along.

I live in New England my whole life and 62F is not short and Tshirt weather.

For a person who lived in warm climates, that is deadfully cold weather.
