Is there anyone who's bothered by 15 °C (a common average high for SH winters; 59 °F)?

What if it's sunny and no wind?

I would only be bothered by it during the daytime in the summer. Of course, I don't have to worry about that where I live.

15-16 is the perfect winter temps I think. I love those 15° days in January we get sometimes in NYC. That's why I love climates like Palermo and Valencia and Parana so much

They seem extremely common in the SH (Chile, Argentina, Australia, New Zealand...)

I was thinking about this yesterday at work, when the temperature was around 15C/16C, relative humidity around 97%, no wind, and sun.

Barring medical conditions, I don't think it would be possible for anyone to feel cold in those conditions. Someone who has just arrived from a warmer climate, would certainly feel temperatures they aren't used to, but I don't think that feeling could accurately be described as cold.

Agreed. I think some people refer to any absence of warmth as "cold", which is probably why you hear about people in Miami being "cold" in 18 C temperatures. It's not that they're cold, they're just not feeling warmth, and automatically call it cold.

What about people who have that temperature as an average high of the coolest month? Would that feel cold to them?

I winter at a ski resort. I'll go out when it's -5F at my house and maybe -10F up on the mountain. I have Hotronics heaters in my boots, electric glove liners, and all the high tech fabrics. Any colder than that and I can't stay out very long.
