I think I'm a lukewarm weather lover. Warm days and coolish nights for relief. But here has hot days and warm nights year round. Tropical highland like might suit.

Some people are adapted to it and built for it. People who are indigenous to hot, humid regions of the world, for example. I am not. My ancestors have built up a tolerance for the cold. I love cold weather. Absolutely hate heat. This climate is simply unsuitable for me in the summer. It's also unsuitable for me in winter because the snow melts too fast, and I am constantly deprived of the snow cover that I feel is natural and warranted at that time of year, especially for Yule.

I'm very fine with hot days so long as the nights cool down briskly, my dream climate summer average is 27 or so but with many 30+ days too. What I don't like is when the hot days stretch into autumn and spring, something that's unfortunately a little too common here - would ideally have them all concentrated in summer.

I love warm humid summer days with highs in the upper 80s to near 90. I love that on a summer evening it is still warm enough for me to walk around outside without a shirt without feeling the least bit chilly.

Same, I cannot comprehend liking heat, except maybe between 20-25*C, where it feels more like a comforting warmth than insect-filled suffocation. I find cold more tolerable, and even somewhat fun, but maybe others are just more tolerant and feel like I do between 20 and 25.

I moved to south Florida mid 2008, I love the hot weather. I grew up in the northeast and I hate the cold. Tp me cold is depressing and warmth is happiness.

That's not necessarily the case, my Dad born in Scotland and of that ancestry loved year round tropical heat.

It's all about how I'm dressed for me. Light clothing - warmth is nice. Anything heavier (even a heavy cotton polo shirt) and I'm suffering even in the 70s.

I don't mind days in the 80 to to 88ºF range with no/low humidity, and the nights need to cool down to at least the 70's. I can't describe how much I hate when the nights are humid and still in 80ºF range. I lived in Mississippi and experienced that every summer and it might seem okay for a week but it's terrible. Not comfortable, not even being naked would make it seem enjoyable...
