Thick winter attire when it's 22 degrees Celsius!? Lol, you're like Flight Simmer, but you prefer wet and cloudy.
I think North West Europe is too cold for you though. 22C is the typical summer temperature here.
I am not too fussed about the temperatures as long as there is no icy easterly wind blowing!.
All I care about is that I get to see regular bouts of cloudy and rainy/showery weather .
Besides one of my best mates lives in Berlin (moved there from here a few years ago) so my five - week vacation is a perfect opportunity to catch up with him
I could tolerate more rain and hours of sunless weather in Australia
as long as the temperatures remain 3-5 C (6-9 F) above average.
Even in Townsville, even in the Wet, I usually hate the coolness of the rain.
Also being sunless and dry is also remarkably cooler than dry and sunny for the same temperature.
Low of 8.3C here this morning which is the lowest since October last year, a nice heavy dew as well. Models aren't promising much on the rain front at this stage.
Subjective of course. In Australia's case it's a pure live saver but you wouldn't understand unless you live/d in the south or west of the South Island or on the east coast of Australia

I have lived in the south/west of the South Island. Of course La Nina generally makes conditions more benign there for those who want more sun and less rain, but it's hardly a lifesaver.
What is the coldest temperature you get during an average winter? You didn't have your fire going?
About -4C is the coldest it gets in an average winter: Lowest Temperature - 041522 - Bureau of Meteorology
Unfortunately, the other people in my house never want to heat the house, even though they always turn the a/c on the moment it reaches 25C.

That's impressively cool for 27 S even given the slight elevation. Christchurch bottoms out at -3 or -4 most years.
Also interesting that people who live in a generally warm climate find 25 C uncomfortably hot.

I might keep the windows open in my bedroom if other people in my house if others are turning the A/C on pointlessly and/or refuse to contribute to the electric bill.
Depends on the living situation (harder to do if it's family). But living with someone who insists on the A/C too much can be very annoying.

True. Even Melbourne pretty much never drops below 0C, atleast in the city centre and bayside suburbs. Outer inland suburbs might get to -1C, but if it occurs, it is usually only once or twice a year.
Brisbane's outer western suburbs actually get much harder frosts with temps as low as -4C likely at least once a year, and they get a handful of nights under 0C. Even Sydney's inland suburbs get colder than Melbourne's suburbs with a few sub-zero nights a year. In Melbourne, the temp rarely drops below zero in the metro area, and if it does, it is usually by only a few tenths of a degree and once or twice a year.
