Then I moved the Southeast for 15 years but never adapted to the summer heat. Above 80F is hot to me. I was painting my house and started at dawn an quit about 11 am. The neighbor across from me was building a rock wall. He came out about noon when the temperature was 95F and worked through the afternoon in the sun with temperatures above 100F.

When why wife and I were in Hawaii last year they had a "severe" cold snap and our Airbnb host checked in to see if we were ok. It got down to 75F at night and she said she had to wear her down parka to bed. I slept in shorts and a t-shirt with the windows open.
Oh of course i was just giving him a hard time. I'm just getting the winter blues lol.
