What daytime temperatures (in Farenheit) would you class as

a) Mild ?
b) Warm ?
c) Hot ?

What about night time temperatures ?

My choices would be 50+ (maybe 55+), 65+ and 85+ respectively for the daytime and 40,50 and 60 for the night time but I am interested in what everyone else thinks.

Just straight temps?

Since I don't like "cold",
I'll count this as temps happening without the warmth of the sun,
moderate-to-low relative humidity
and with a constant 10-15 mph (16-25 km/h) breeze...

Mild? 56+ F (13 C)
Warm? 75+ F (24 C)
Hot? 95+ F (35 C)

Day
Mild = (72° - 79°)
Warm = (80° - 86°)
Hot = (86°+)

Night
Mild = (61° - 64°)
Warm = (65° - 75°)
Hot = (76°+)

dewpoints are a factor in this as well... if the dp (humidity) is high then these can be knocked down a few °'s.

It's what you're used to. Acclimatized to. If you'd asked me this 10 years ago, when I lived in Canada, my answers would have been quite different.

Really???
I've never lived anywhere else and your answers are quite similar to mine; and I've only lived in Canada.
What do you think you would have answered when you lived in Canada?

That could be my answer as well. Although I'm rarely comfortable when the temperature is over "mild".

Again, we are complete opposites.

I usually don't like what I call "mild" weather instead of warmer temps,
but I can usually tolerate "mild" quite well.
