Now I live in a cold climate and adapted to this weather like a duck to water.
It is probably a matter of personal preferences. Age has nothing to do with it. I hated the heat (80s) as a little kid and now that I am 60 it hasn't changed. If anything, it has only gotten worse.

It all depends on the person. I always read about how hot Florida is but we traveled to Orlando at the end of July and the heat was great. Try an Oklahoma summer some time then complain about the heat. Then to top it all off it was 28 when I woke up this morning. Stupid weather.
