Perfect: 70- 75 degrees Fahrenheit with a light breeze and some sunshine.
Cold: 10- 40 degrees Fahrenheit.
Hot: 90 degrees Fahrenheit and above. However, I can stand 90 degree weather better without humidity.
Nope, the perfect example of "lardos" who shouldn't be straining themselves in extreme heat is, somewhat ironically, those who live in the hottest, humidest region of the country.
Though, looking at education rankings, I can see where a resident such as yourself might be confused

I grew up in NY for 30 years prior to moving here. I think you often forget what this board is mostly about.
Exactly. Lately it's been in the high 50s and low 60s around here in the morning and evening, normal fall weather, but after summer it feels cold. We say "wow it's cold out!" or "it got cold!" We don't REALLY mean it because we know true cold (last winter during the polar vortex it was in the single digits with wind chills in the negatives) but as seasons first start to change it feels more extreme than it really is.
It's going to come down to how much time is spent outside during the heat or during the cold in their respective regions. I find myself outside more in the heat (in SC) than outside more in the cold (in NY). For those that like winter activities, it might be much different, but give me the beach any day!
Yet you consider "cold" to be 35 to 50... many northerners would not consider 40-50 cold, especially nearing 50. Your sentence can be twisted in some way to represent that. Why the hate on those who don't like what they view as oppressive heat and humidity when you consider 50 degrees to be cold? Everyone has their own opinions, no need for comments like that.
Plenty of people complain about cold in the north, too... Maybe even more than heat in the south. Don't even get me started on the white stuff. Snow may as well be the devil to many in warmer climates while we who live in areas that get snow quietly deal with it like it's no big deal - because it usually isn't. Meanwhile in the south, they get half an inch and everything shuts down.

LOL your posts make it sound like NJ is some kind of polar climate. And you are seriously exaggerating the temperatures. It hasn't been in highs in the 50's. I have been in NYC several times over the last 3 weeks for work, and have the temperature set on my phone. The high has been around 70-75 almost everyday. In the upper 60's at the lowest.
Here is NYC's the 10 day forecast of highs for the rest of September: 69, 75, 67, 77, 79, 81, 79, 70, 72, 74...
Even in New York City, nothing even close to the 50's, and barely dipping into the 60's a couple times....gimme a break!
"We who live in areas that get snow". NJ gets a light dusting compared to much of the country. Average high in winter is around 40 degrees, and average snowfall around 25 inches throughout the state. The way you talk you would think you live in Quebec City or Duluth!

Uhm, Jerseygirl said it gets into the high 50s, low 60s in the mornings, which would be consistent with your temperatures, not that the highs are IN the 50s...
