For runners, the difference between 60F and 100F (~15.5 - 37.8 C) is about 2 minutes per mile at the same effort. That’s a huge difference. Humidity makes it worse because your body’s main method for cooling itself doesn’t work, but sweating, comfort, and preference aside, its literally harder to do anything in the heat.
Summer is better than winter.
In the Midwest we go from -40 to 110. They both blow, but snow is the deciding factor for me.
That’s really funny because it’s the same for me : snow is the absolute thing I would gladly never see again and wouldn’t miss it, even for a second. But I have to agree that 45°C is hell, as is -20°C.
34°C (94F) is the perfect temperature. Acceptable upper limit would be 38°C (100F), above that it’s hot. Acceptable lower limit is 25°C (77F), below that it’s cold
Yeah snow is pretty awesome
summer is better than winter
you can put on more layers in winter, but you can’t get more naked in summer
Idk 45 seems pretty chilly
The hottest temperature ever recorded on Earth is like 56.
Dont engage. Chippy is a well known ragebaiter
Nah, its hotter than that rn bud.
Record is 56c in 1913.
Here in Canada, we only hit 38c about 2 months ago, and its calmed down since. So tf you mean its like that now, bud?
Idk why you keep putting c after the numbers. You should be putting d for degrees. Canada sounds way colder than I thought.
First, I know you’re playing me. No one is this stupid by accident.
Second, even if d for degrees was right, 56d is still higher than 38d.
Like, you’re not even a good troll, just a hack.
Disagree
Celsius ≠ Fahrenheit
Idk what that first word is.
There’s a good reason why the world sneers at 'Murica
It’s not that I think you don’t understand, but when the closest thing you have to humour as a nation is obnoxious trolling, it kinda makes the rest of the world hate you all the more
And you keep giving us reasons
You’re not taking my silly comment on a shitpost seriously enough…You’re a real negative and hateful commentor historically. That’s a lot of weight to carry, but hey, somebody… has to?
It’s finally been getting down to the 60s F (16-21 C) here in Minnesota and I can take walks without sweating the whole way through. I’m a little disappointed to have heard we may have a mild winter this year.
Mild winter? Nooooo!!! The last one for me in the 60s and I barely got a winter at all last time :(
on the shitpost meter, you score 50%
What?
i went on a crusade ranking shitposts on how much a shitpost it truly was using my proprietary grading methodelogy, a score of 50% indicates the post qualifies as a meme, but does not have any recognisable identifiers of a shitpost
Technically people should hate me most cause i offend everyone. I like very continental climates so both hot summers and cold winters, i just like seeing the seasons and the smell in the air change, having a dip in a cold lake or sea during summer, having the perfect weather for outdoor activites during fall, being able to ski, build snowmen, chill inside during winter, etc. I know i have bias cause i was born somewhere where the climate is like this but i just love it. Everyone has their preferences.
When its 0°K and some mf says winter is better than summer.
I can always put on another layer. I can only get so naked.
At least then it’s still OK.
K does not use °, when will people learn?
Used to be correct until 1967
So it will take people more than59 years to learn you say?
It’s not one thing, it’s multiple things together.
Cold is okay alone, but add wind and/or rain and cold sucks.
Heat is okay without humidity, and as long as it still gets cool at night for a break. Heat with wind and/or rain is okay, but heat with wind and dust sucks. Dust always sucks.
Cold is okay alone
Someone’s never been where it gets -40
I can always wear more.
I can never wear less than my skin and be miserable.I do agree with that and prefer cold over hot. But when it gets down around there it’s just fucking miserable. Any exposed skin just starts to hurt so quick
I have and I’ll take it, please give me some of your cold weather. There’s only so much you can do when it becomes 110 outside. The AC is on permanently to keep it at 85.
It’s coarse and rough and irritating, and it gets everywhere
But the rain is one of the best parts
Rain when it’s just barely above freezing is terrible. Although I don’t consider anything above freezing “cold”. That’s shorts weather come April.
Having to go out in sleet can be awful yeah, I still like it though.
There’s a difference between “going out” in sleet, and survival in sleet. Granted, sleet is still not as bad as a 1 degree / 34 degree rain downpour, but I wouldn’t want to be sleeping outdoors in a month of record breaking sleet either.
Well yeah, having to stay outside in any temperature outside of comfortable for extended periods can be a problem. I wouldn’t want to be sleeping outside in record breaking heatwaves either.
Don’t have to shovel heat.
It doesn’t typically snow enough to shovel where I live
Don’t have to mow, rake, weed whack, or trim the cold
That’s because everything is dead and brown. I’ll take the yard work in the heat for the green.
Brown? Na it’s white.
We’ve had those temps, and sweating all day with AC unit running sucks. I’d much rather put on a sweater if I feel chilly in the Winter.
Winter can suck my dick. Getting through winter with myotonia sucks ass
Summer can suck my dick. Getting through summer with hyperhydrosis sucks ass.
Ha!
I stand by it. Summer IS better than winter
What do you like about summers?
Seeing the sun, not having the air be so cold that any exposed skin hurts, air that isn’t so dry I feel like I’m suffocating, grocery runs not feeling like a trek through the Antarctic
Sitting on a patio drinking beers, or swimming comfortably in a lake when camping
No flu, no sickness (maybe once), no runny nose, no stiff joints, wanting to actually do stuff, having more productive time to do stuff, being able to go into nature and hang out all the time.
Winters are absolutely depressing and miserable.
Camping, swimming, boating, fishing, sunshine, green plants, gardens, dry feet, not having to bundle up.
Sunshine on my face and skin. This contributes MASSIVELY to my mental health. Where I live winter is a constant claustrophobic grey.
In an ideal world 65F or 18C would be a once in an absolutely never heatwave.
We’re about to find out nature’s wrath with new and fun weather in every season.
You can put on more clothes to mitigate a cold winter, but can you put off more clothes in summer when you are already bare naked? No… Winter wins!
