I like the heat and wouldn't mind 85. Surprised the poll doesn't have a higher temperature bar, I know some folks could even be happy at 90 at the absolute top.
80 in the shade with mild breeze is my happy place though.
Anything between 68-86, I wouldn't notice the temp, or wear anything other than usual dress. Dew point is a much, more important factor, it should be 72. Media weather reports never, ever mention the dew point. Usually, on summer days, it lingers all day aroun the morning's low temt.
I went to Hawaii and it was genuinely hot, well into the 80s, which surprised me. However, because of the wind it felt like paradise.
I was in Madrid, Spain and it was in the 90s. I walked around the city all day and never broke a sweat. Because of their elevation there is no humidity whatsoever. I assume that when you sweat there, it is immediately absorbed into the air and the heat from you skin goes with it. It did not feel hot there even though it was over 90 degrees.
Here in the South, that is not the case. The key is keeping your house ice cold. That way when you go from ice cold house to ice cold car to ice cold office or store, the heat outside actually feels good.
I plan my vacations around weather and try to get to places when they are in the low to mid 60s.
80-100 is perfect weather imo. Anything below 60 or above 110 is unbearable
