What do people in your area consider to be "shirt-sleeve" weather?
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.

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.

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