I'm just interested to see what temperature range you guys would consider frigid, cold, cool, mild, warm, hot and blazing. So I can compare, say, what temp I would feel cold at and what temp an Aussie would feel cold at. I know Americans who think that 10degrees is warm, and in Britain 16 degrees is a nice Spring day.
So I give you an example of my temp ranges:
Frigid: Below 0c
Cold: 0c-10c
Cool: 11c-20c
Mild: 21c-24c
Warm: 25c-30c
Hot: 31c-35c
Blazing: Above 35c What do you think? What is yours?
I've only experienced one day I would consider blazing, at 50c it was like being in an oven.
Sounds like my definition of hell! Mind you I've been in 46 degrees with low humidity in Greece before... It actually didn't feel that hot... But perhaps I was expecting it to feel hotter than how I felt.

Lol yes we live in an arctic tundra. Where do you people come up with this stuff. The only way 10C is considered warm to an American is in a northern US climate in the middle of winter. Even in that case most people would say it is "warm for a winter day" type of thing. The US has many different types of climates. Philadelphia has hotter summers than Sydney and colder winters. We are used to all kinds of weather.

I do actually have cousins from the US that go out in shorts when it's 10c (they told me on FB)! But they come from somewhere In the north and it was spring if I'm honest. But yea, I understand America's a big country, and continental seasons are extreme!
Frigid - Below -10
Cold -10 to 0
Cool 0 to 15
Mild 15-25
Warm 25-30
Hot 30 -35
Blazing - 35+
I would make blazing 40+ if you take out the humidity that normally comes with Brisbane.
I have survived two complete winters in Seoul, where it often gets below -10, and another 4 in London, which is more than enough for me to know that I don't like the 4 season weather that people often rave about on this forum.
