Well it's 3C below the average for early December here & I personally regard anything lower than 10C 'chilly'. But it's down to your own perception of what is/isn't warm/cold, everyone is different
In all your posts you seem to dislike warm temperatures, would it not perhaps make more sense for you to move somewhere cooler, if it really is affecting you as much as you suggest??
Here it is cold, not just chilly. Very light rain first thing but sunny since mid morning...
Last Nights Low: 3.1C
Currently: 6.2C
Who cares about the averages. The temperature is hardly ever at the average.
What we are used to now will determine if it feels cold or warm.
If it has been -2c every day for the past 2 weeks 8c will feel warm but if its been 14c for the past 2 weeks 8c will feel cold.
Wouldn't the high dewpoint negate the feel of the sun somewhat, similar to the way it does with UV?. I associate a harsh sun more with lower dewpoints, rather than high ones,
On the other hand, I guess it's harder for skin to cool at that dewpoint, possibly making the feel of the sun worse.
Zagreb, Croatia - Currently -1C with the low for tonight of -3C and the high for tomorrow of 3C. I am really looking forward to this weekend when the temps shouldn't get above freezing and around 40-60cm (1.3-2 ft) of snow will fall.

I really dont know. All i know is yesterday and today (two hot days-but not as hot, just about avg high for january-) were humid and with high dew points and i felt worse than i felt on those 35, 36 and 37 c days. The sun feels way stronger. Being outside under the sun feels impossible.
Being under the sun in a 37c day with low humidity feels MUCH nice than being under the sun now.
50 F/10 C with a mix of sun and clouds at 2:50PM. Cool, dry, breezy, and refreshing compared to the last couple days.

Perhaps a little, but not enough to not make it feel extremely uncomfortable.

I will be boiling inside not because of the temps but becuase of the unseasonality.
I'd say it happens 1-3 times most winters, though of course there are exceptions. Last year the highest was 59 F I believe (still close enough). During the cooler years, 40s or low 50s may be the max. Standard deviation is higher here in the winter. Based on 1981-2010 data, December, January, and February averages 5, 2.8, and 4.5 days above 50 F, respectively.
I've never experienced 70s in December or February, but have in January.
-3c (27F) at 10:30pm
humidity 57%
dew point -9c (16F)
High today 7c (45F) at 1am
Low today -3c (27F) though it might drop another degree before midnight
Much cooler then yesterday's record breaking 17c (62F).
Breezy wintry day today, not too bad with sun/cloud mix.
Ottawa was Canada 's hot spot yesterday at a balmy 18c (64F).
