Red_08 Posted October 15, 2004 Report Share Posted October 15, 2004 It's starting to get colder now.In the morning it's 60 degrees, (farenhiet or however you spell it. Yes that is freezing for us!) then 90 degrees. (a little to hot when we're wearing our turtle-necks and sweaters )I was just thinking the other day that if Tim came and visited, he would be wearing shorts, a t-shirt and flipflops while we are wearing turtlenecks, sweaters, coats, and shoes with thick socks!So, I got the idea for this poll.I would vote 70 to 90. (more toward 90 as I like the heat )(BTW, who agrees with me that Texas weather is wierd?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldenratiophi Posted October 15, 2004 Report Share Posted October 15, 2004 I'd rather be cool than burning up.50-70 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Posted October 16, 2004 Report Share Posted October 16, 2004 I've never been to Texas, but I'd say that Minnesota has pretty shifty weather.Im most comforatbel in the 50 - 70, but I'm still wearing t-shirts when its 30 degress here.

EKen132 Posted October 16, 2004 Report Share Posted October 16, 2004 This is the most ridiculous thread I've seen here to date. Our temperatures here range from 30 to 100 throughout the year.Which reminds me. I've done quite a bit of camping during all seasons and the question has come up:Is it better to have it baking hot or freezing cold? Let me tell you, the answer (when you're camping) is freezing cold. There's quite a few ways to make you warmer, but surprisingly few ways to escape the heat on a hot day with no AC!

Sam Posted October 16, 2004 Report Share Posted October 16, 2004 Our temperatures here range from 30 to 100 throughout the year.I think the lowest we (as in the great state of Minnesota) got last winter was - 30 something and -50 windchill. And the highets I remember was around 97 IIRC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Tutankhamun Posted October 16, 2004 Report Share Posted October 16, 2004 It's gone into the tripple digits in the summer some times here in Cali.But it depends where you are in Cali, Big Bear is snowing now, and Death Valley is in the hundreds.50-70 is nice for me.

chichigrande Posted October 16, 2004 Report Share Posted October 16, 2004 I like it around 75 degrees. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argalius Posted October 16, 2004 Report Share Posted October 16, 2004 I don't know fahrenheid, but I like from 18-23 ºC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnas Posted October 16, 2004 Report Share Posted October 16, 2004 @Agralius, that would be 64.4 to 73.4 in fahrenhiet (multiply by 9/5 and add 32)Hmm....I don't know what temperature I like. I never seem to be happy with the weather. I think my definitions for too cold and too hot overlap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Centurion_13 Posted October 16, 2004 Report Share Posted October 16, 2004 I don't know what temperature I like. I never seem to be happy with the weather.

Red_08 Posted October 16, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2004 Eken, if you read my post, I asked what the most comfortable temperature is for you.@Sam:Wow!I'm wearing turlenecks with sweaters, a coat, and my windbreaker pants in that kind of weather!It just goes to show ya how thin your blood can get out here. But now that I think about it, I lived in Maine where people went swimming in 40 or 50 degree water. (F. again:))Where do you live Sam?

Clodhopper Posted October 16, 2004 Report Share Posted October 16, 2004 I chose 70-90. That's the most sensible one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoggyFrog Posted October 17, 2004 Report Share Posted October 17, 2004 50 - 70...But why did you have to go with farenheit, it's so inconvenient for us folks outside of the U.S. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yiuel Posted October 17, 2004 Report Share Posted October 17, 2004 To me, it depends on which time of year it is. I'll be comfortable at 10-30 by winter and it will be hot at 30-50. But in summer, I'll be chilling, where I would be confortable at 70-110. This is a relative matter to me. But wouldn't be confortable (unless well dressed) at ~10-10. This is a bit too cold to get out undressed.(SoggyFroggy : You never learned to use farenheit? I went in the U.S. so many times that I had to get used to it. Also, we are used, in my family, to measure water's temperature with fareinheit. At 60 (15) , it is tolerable, at 70 (20), it's not bad, at 80 (25), it's confortable at 90 (30) it begins to be hot.)

Mythos_Ruler Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 I think these numbers in the poll are a little too wide. LOL 50-70 degrees is a pretty big margin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yiuel Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 Lorian : I was more thinking of SoggyFroggy. Even though indeed there are some Canadians that never went in the United States (this is even more true in Quebec!), most of them, especially those that can afford a computer, went there.

Curufinwe Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 (50-70 for me ... at least, it is not too hot ... nor too cold But you can't go to the swimming-pool, nor ski ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though indeed there are some Canadians that never went in the United States (this is even more true in Quebec!), most of them, especially those that can afford a computer, went there. I've been to the U.S. a couple times, when I was younger, so it wasn't sufficient to learn about fahrenheit. Anyways, we travel around Canada a lot more, which, with all the trouble caused by 9/11, is far easier.I suppose it is a simple calculation that one can easily commit to memory, but my point is, the celsius (as it works with kelvin) and the metric system must be adopted, so why try restrain its advance by advocating fahrenheit?It's not a big deal, I just thought it would be a good idea to further justify my complaint.
