gemfyreJust been reading a lot about how it's unusually hot in the U.S. right now.
Well, people say it's "hot". Hot it seems is a slightly chilly 21C. At that temperature I have a jumper on and am getting cold.
Apparently 80F is scorching. Turns out that's a balmy 26C, pretty much ideal operating temperature for me.
Right now here in Australia, we're averaging over 35C (95F) and often we top 38C, which is 100F.
Then again I was talking to a woman from New Zealand who said 18C was perfect weather. By that time I have a heater running. If it gets too much below 16C (61F), I stay in bed under the covers and refuse to go outside.
