+20 to +25 is the perfect temperature Below is cold, above is hot

At 0, snow and ice form, so +10 is in the middle between your regular room temperature and freezing (i.e. jacket weather)

+30 is the kind of weather when you better be naked or wearing lightest of clothes or you’re gonna get baked over time. Not deadly by any means, but highly uncomfortable.

I take it in tens.

-20° to -10° is full parka weather. Your breath freezes on your clothes and moisture in the air dries up.

-10° to 0° is winter coat and scarf weather. Damp cold. Snow and ice but you don’t feel like your eyeballs are freezing.

0° to 10° Jacket weather. Early spring temps. Pretty mild in either direction.

10° - 20° Hoodie and t-shirt to taste. Basically the comfortable human range for most.

20°- 30° T-shirt time. Anything above 25 is solidly in swimming weather territory.

30°- 40° Time to seek some shade. Heatstroke and heat exhaustion are variable in this range the low end is a health risk for seniors the high end is a risk for even the hardcore heat lovers in their prime.

I just applied mine to the temps in the OP :)

Humidity is also a thing to account for. I’ll take 40° at 10% RH over 28° at 90% any day.

10° to 20° is definitely t shirt and shorts territory tho

Depends, I am increasingly a shorts year round Canadian so yes? But I feel like it’s also acceptable hoodie and pants weather. Hence “to taste”.
