What do people in your area consider to be "shirt-sleeve" weather? (temperatures, cities)

[mrconfusion87]

I'm just curious about what people in various cities would consider to be "shirt-sleeve" weather since I know this is all relative to the local climatic patterns and temperatures in your area...

Can you please inform me on this topic? Thanks...

You mean "short-sleeve" weather?

For most people in the Toronto area, it's 60-65 F. (16-18 C)
If it's sunny I might wear a t-shirt at 60-65 F too.
Without sun or if I have to stay in the shade, it has to be at least 75 F (24 C)
or I have to be very active to get the blood pumping.

Here in South Central Texas, any thing above 55°F
is short sleeve weather. Above 65°F is sleevless!

Is south central Texas windy?
Here, calm winds are rare, so below 60 F short-sleeves are less common.

If is is windy, people from south central TX are better adapted to chilliness than many people from Toronto; certainly moreso than I am.
(80% of the population here is "adapted" to spending 6+ months inside, where it's heated to 68-74 F )

*Could that be why so many Texans hate temps as "low" as 90 F?
For me, 90 F is merely "distinctly summer-like" and can make you thirsty quicker.

above 18C (64F)

55°F to 65°F.

If the temperature in New York climbs into the 60s in mid-March, that's short-sleeve weather.

I wear short sleeve's yesar round inside, outside 65F with no wind is it.

I agree in PA and even in SC for us "short sleeve" weather is anything above 55.........
Below 55 I bundle up.......over 65 is a joyful day
