I don't mind dry heat, don't care if it's 90 or 100 even, but humidity kills me - even moreso being I have hyperhydrosis (can't even sleep unless the fan's on). The worse is driving somewhere when it's like 90 and I have to roll up the windows because its raining, makes me really wish my AC worked :|


I have the opposite problem. I'm on a medication (not AS-related) where one of the side effects is that you don't sweat enough. I have to be so hot that I'm on the verge of passing out before I'll start sweating any noticible amount. I do like warm weather, but if it's too hot I get overheated really fast.

No AC in the car? 8O That's terrible!

Yeah, that's probably a lot worse, sorry to hear that :|

I love it at 30 or 40 degrees and cloudy. The heat is just too much at times.

I can only stand it to be freezing sometimes. Like if I am in the mood for it, and I have a thick coat to cuddle up in. Otherwise, I'm not too fond of freezing weather. Just cool weather.

Lol yeah, it's a delicate balancing act. You know how girls are - always cold... but turn the temperature up a few degrees and that's too hot when there's not much of an internal cooling mechanism. Kind of annoying. The only good thing is that humidity doesn't really bother me, it's just the temperature itself. The best part about the lack of sweating - I rarely have to worry about wetness problems.

I have a small range of temperatures that I'm comfortable in, about 70 - 85 degrees. I dislike really hot weather, but I completely abhor really cold weather. I'd rather it be really hot than really cold. Winter is the worst time of the year.

I think that liking a specific temperature really depends on the person's weight and the climate they live or have grown up in. For instance, I was having a sleepover with a friend last summer (and keep in mind that she weighed about 182 pounds while I'm only 89 pounds) and she kept complaining about the intensity of the heat in my room. I thought it was perfect but I turned on the fan for her anyway. She sat in front of it and she said she was still too hot. Trust me, she was sweating so much that her hair was wet! She said she definently prefers cooler weather and I personally can't stand the cold. Anyway, here in Indiana, we have mixed weather. In the summer, it can get well over a hundred degrees and in the winter, it can even go as low as the negative twenties. However, THAT doesn't happen too often! I used to live in Houston, Texas for about six years, so I'm thinking that may also have something to do with my preference of a warmer climate. My friend has lived here in Indy her entire life.

I seem to be different to my entire family in my comfortrange. When they are comfortable, I am cold. When they are a bit too hot, I am comfiortable. If they're "melting" as they put it, I'm just a bit uncomfortable.

I only start getting uncomfortable at temperatures over 30 degrees C (90 degrees F)-unless it's huimid, then 25 degrees C up becomes difficult.

I hate hot weather. :(

I hate feeling hot and sweaty. I hate not being able to wear a coat out - it's like it's a kind of psychological protection for me. Most of all I hate all the noise, windows open and being able to hear all the neighbors TV and music too loudly and people screaming and shouting in their gardens.

I love my hot weather...I prefer being hot to being cold, anytime! Personally I've found it's easier to cool down than warm up.

A goal of mine is to move to a tropical place :)

Not this NT! Hate it, hate it, hate it! The first hot day of the year my arms break out in a hideous, itchy, blistered mess. I have to wear disgusting sticky greasy factor 50+ sunblock all summer.

Hot weather is evil.
:evil:
