what do you consider perfect weather

Yeah I moved from (and my parents are in) Central, IL. First time this winter they are warmer than I am in Central, KY and they don't have any snow.

We've got 14" and it's about 5 degrees outside. BOOOOOO!
 
depends.

if i'm in the carribean i like it blazing hot so i can be right on the beach and in the water.

at home, 70s- 80's with not too much humidity.
 
Dry climate with 4 seasons. I'm pretty happy where I live.

If I had to deal with the same weather all year round, something like Santa Cruz, CA would do the trick 55-75 degrees.
 
The coldest temp that I can run in shorts and not be cold starting... so around 50F-55F. And no humidity or wind please.
 
Perfect weather? Perfect weather for what?
70-75 would suck if I were going to go swimming at the beach. 70-75 would suck if I were trying to go downhill skiing, cross-country skiing, snowmobiling, or especially, ice fishing. 70-75 would suck if I wanted to go jet skiing, or if I wanted to go water skiing or tubing behind the boat. I suppose, 70-75 would be really nice for doing those things I like to do in the Spring and Fall. But, I'm glad I have seasons with a wider range of temperatures, so I can experience a lot more things in life.
 
perfect weather in winter, 20-25 deg, snowing
perfect weather in fall, 50-60 deg f, drizzle/overcast
perfect weather in summer, 60-70 deg f mostly cloudy
perfect weather in spring, 50-60 deg f, rain/clouds

I hate when its too sunny, hurts my eyes. Also, I hate when its hot, because its miserably intolerable.

why is 75 too cold for you to go swimming?
 
90 and about 40% humidity. Too dry and my skin starts to crack like a dry lake bed. It's plenty warm to be outside lounging or in the pool and not so hot that I can't mow the lawn or work on the car.

Yes, I like it warm 🙂 I can even deal with a few days of Phoenix summers at a time without constantly being indoors.
 
Everyday life: sun, 25°C, very light breeze, low humidity, otherwise lower to 23°C.

Beach holiday/summer: 30°C, light breeze, sun, but possibly no more than 24°C at night.

I don't care about winter activities.

Partly cloudy, 60 degrees F with 50% humidity and no precipitation, slight breeze. Seattle almost nails this... almost.

Well, I suppose it really depends on the water temperature. Yesterday, I sat in the hot tub (close enough to swimming), and it was -20F outside. Walking through 2 feet of snow after getting out of the hot tub wasn't too bad.

wouldn't 75F ambient air temperature make the water like 50 degrees?

I know our pool feels freezing cold unless we've had a good multi-day heatwave, I imagine lakes and beach waters take significantly longer to warm up.
