I don't think I have a T-shirt temperature as such. The dew point is as probably as much of a factor. It was 19/20C here yesterday, but with low humidity (33%, for a 3.2C dew point))and it felt chilly. 20C with a 15C dew point, feels much warmer.

The high temperature 72+, and low temperature 62+, so a minimum high around lowest 70s and low in lowest 60s: 72/62. This is including sunny, cloudy, windy, rain, low wind speed etc.
Sometimes 70/60 is the minimum t-shirt weather if extremely humid, low diurnal range, very cloudy, and no wind after warmer weather. If the low temperature is below 50-55 degrees, and windy, after cooler weather, then mid 70s up to 77 degrees high temperature is sometimes not really t-shirt weather.
I prefer t-shirt weather most of June, all of July, August, 50%-70% of September, and 25%-30% of October, and Late May. I don’t mind some rare t-shirt weather days November-May, especially in exciting Continental climates. I have a rather high standard for t-shirt weather. lol
Where I live right now, there was ZERO t-shirt weather days since September 11th. Most years almost of June is not t-shirt weather, and then half of July-August is vulnerable to anemic summer weather with few exceptions. Almost never really warm enough to go into the oceanic water without risk of hypothermia and wetsuit. Pacific Northwest summers are overrated most years, at least in Vancouver-Seattle.
Depending on wind and altitude, yes altitude, above 60F/16C in CO and CA 65F/18. In CO, you will see people wearing short and t shirts in the winter above 40F crazy to me.
Sunny : 18-20c / 64-68f i think depends on UV index/sun angle
Cloudy/windy : 20-23c/68-73f depends on wind speed / cloud cover
rainy : umbrella needed, i think around 24c/75f, but the fact that rain spread germs, not the cool/cold water, that causes sick, even at 80f rain
