The Summer.

The Summer.

Last summer, average overnight low in San Diego was in the low 70s for August and September (upper 60s for July and October) which meant is was still in the mid to upper 70s around 10PM- a far cry from needing a light jacket. You haven't been here since we started our warm epoch. I think you'd like it a lot better than the way the climate here was a few years ago.

I'm not flip-flopping at all. I was responding to Astral's post, you somehow began talking to me, about unimportant things.

Look Slo, no one cares. Everyone knows SoCal is cool in the winter, if they're from there.

I had a look at the San Diego recorded temps for August just now.

That's definitely a great summer for San Diego criteria. I would like that summer a lot better than what's typical for San Diego.

Unfortunately that summer is not typical, though if there is a sliver lining to Global Warming, it will become more typical as El Nino events become more common.

I hear Alaskans wear short sleeves when it becomes 40s.

I don't envy them, as I don't envy you for wearing flip-flops at 60 degrees.

You heard wrong. They go to short sleeves when it goes above freezing.

Seriously, this is not uncommon with some of the native kids from cold, interior areas.

For me, 70 degrees in Alaska seems nice and warm, just right in fact, but 70 degrees in Hawaii seems a bit cool, for some reason.

I guess it's because we can mostly adapt to a wide variety of climates, so those temps become outlying on the opposite sides of the spectrum.

I don't envy your disgusting humidity.

If humidifty is so great why does the body get overheated quicker ?
It's not comfortable or pleaseant..the body disagrees.


You must not go outside or something .

So what do they mean by 'light clothing'? Hoodies? Sweaters? Because if an indoor place is 64 degrees, I need a sweater, pants, socks and even then I'm uncomfortably cold. As are most people.

By 'light clothing' I mean shorts, t-shirt, no socks. And for that the indoor temperature better be at least 75F.
Try putting your heat to 81 and see how that feels.

64 indoors is not the same as outside.

When I'm on business I set my heat to 80F if it's the winter and I'm in a cold place. Feels great. Ofc, I will be in short sleeves, and no socks.

Both cases, it's uncomfortably cold unless you layer. And I hate to be layered, especially indoors.
