But see, i do. I'm just trying to point out that different people have different perspectives, someone from central russia would think england's winter is mild, just u think my winter preference/ and a slightly colder perth winter is mild
It depends because I live in Perth, and most people I know hate winter because it's too, I agree to. Almost as though if someone from Yakutsk went to Europe in winter, they would find it fairly warm. The same as europeans/americans going t australia and experiencing an Australian winter. But for australians our winters are bloody freezing. Today it was 18˚C but I thought it was pretty cold, I didn't feel any warm even when it was sunny (a bit windy tho). Just my opinion but it truly depends on where u live and the difference in temps. My opinion on winter weather is 20-22˚C max and 10-11˚C mins.
I'm from Sydney and I would consider these temps fairly springlike. 22C is pretty much lukewarm to me.
Definitely but come on, anyone with a high below 10c obviously has a winter!
I think many would think a high of 10C should be called a break from winter. We occassionally even have summer highs around 10C where I live though >30C would be much more common. I cannot think of a cold day being 7C as a real winter.
That's delusional. No one would classify 22c as winter weather.
That is not a uncommon high in many parts of Canada on some summer days. I have expereinced 22c on a winter day where I live and when I went for a walk the neighbourhood ladies were on lawn chairs in the snow in bikinis. That is not a cool winter day but an extememly winter day or a mild summer day. Out temp range is from -40 to almost +40 and occassionaly above +40c.
Why is that so surprising? Most of the Canadian Praries as well as Alberta and most of northern Ontario and Quebec have record lows in the -40C to -50C range.
For example, Winnipeg has a record low of -48C and Saskatoon has a record low of -50C. Calgary's is -45C and Edmonton's is -48C. Even Thunder Bay's record low is -41C, despite the fact that it's by the water.

Yeah well today the high was 14c and it wasn't that bad, apparently that is 'winter' weather to them. Not to me, more like early autumn.
22c is definitely not winter weather. Anyone that says so needs to get their head checked.

Well yeah so do we and it's mild but 7c is definitely winter weather. If you average a high of 7c in winter you can have a mix of both 10c days and 0c days.

And at zero the weather is very mild if it is in the winter. I have gone from where I live at minus 20 to Toronto where it was minus 10 and was cold due to the humidity. Some who visit us say we do not have real winters because we get several periods of above zero days during the season and our snow melts.
