When do your fingertips have no significant body-heat? (snow, hot, warm)

[ColdCanadian]

I am curious what kinds of responses I will get.

In Canada I have met people who have hot fingertips even in winter.
These people typically don't have difficulty with Canadian winter.

Other people I have met,
it is quite common for their fingers to feel dead,
in terms of body warmth even at room-temperature.

If most people have warm fingertips down to a certain temperature
and this corresponds to the bottom end of their comfort range
then my weather experiences are similar, except mine occur at higher temperatures.

For those with chilled fingers, are you comfortable even when your fingertips aren't warm?

Probably the best way for a fair comparison is to put the temperature your fingertips aren't warm when you are relaxed, not excersizing.

This morning it was 20 C/68 F, solid overcast, damp with a faint breeze and for the first hour after I waking up they felt cold.
I probably would have felt warm at 16 C/60 F but with morning sunshine.

My fingertips will only go numb when it's cold combined with wind. In that instance, my entire face will go numb.

Bearing in mind the wind will have to be relatively significant.

So your fingertips stay warm, whenever they are not numb?

Haven't really noticed - I've been told that my hands go really cold, even when it's very warm, I don't notice it though, so I guess it's a non-issue.

My fingers can't stand the winter. I need to wear thick mitts or my hands go numb, always had bad circulation in my hands when its cold. Even in a 20c room they get cold.

my hands only feel cold when temps are below freezing. I normally have my hands wraped up in my sleeeves so i dont really notice.

I really don't pay attention to my fingertips, as strange as it might sound, so I guess my fingers don't get hot or cold easily. If there is a sustained wind in the 30-50 mph range, my fingertips will usually get cold even if it's around 50F outside (in which case I'll wear some light gloves), but if there are light winds even 15F presents absolutely no difficulty in keeping them warm. So, my fingertips appear to be a lot more wind sensitive than cold sensitive, and regrettably I can't give a straight answer to the question.

Depends on several factors for me. Temperatures below about 15°C and my hands and feet will be cold. That is also the temperature threshold that my nose starts to run.

My hands are always warm here's how it works for me:

1. 5c wind 30mph hands numb.
2. Snow touched for a few minutes without gloves hand numb.
3.-5c and lower hands numb.

So in general numb if it's 0c or below.

Around 55F is when I notice my fingers getting uncomfortably numb. I can get cold hands at much higher temperatures, of course, but they wouldn't be numb. If it gets to below freezing it can get down right painful.
