Freedom degrees. Roughly -13° or 38° if you live in the sane parts of the world.

I’d pick triple digits, mostly because I’ve lived in places that routinely hit 100° in the summer, and I hate shoveling snow.

I live in a spot where temps range between 19-39 degrees in the daytime, swinging from dry to humid every now and again.

I'll take 1-9 C all day, every day. Despite living here my entire life, temps above 25 are uncomfortable for me. I've discovered that temps between 5 and 14 degrees for me are ideal.

    I was thinking single digits in “freedom degrees,” which is -13°. Same answer?

    Haven't ever been under 0, so while I am partial to cold weather, I cannot offer an answer beyond a guess, that I might be more comfortable still at -13 than at 40, considering I'd just need to put a couple more layers on.

    I can layer up if its cold, windy, and rainy. Walking helps move blood around and warm up. You can't escape heat unless you got AC on, or continuously splash water around your body and sit in front of a fan. Even then, if its hot and moist, that won't help (wet bulb).
