What's your ideal outdoor summer temperature (in Fahrenheit defgrees, if possible)?

Question

I once heard that people in the northwest US are more comfortable at a much lower temperature than people almost anywhere else in the country---even though the weather is very moderate there the whole year round. I'm just testing that hypothesis! (As for me, I'm most comfortable at 65-70 degrees).

Answer 1

about 78F.  it's been hotter in hawai'i these past 10 years or so, (up to the 90's) but that's ideal.

Answer 2

Temperature alone does not tell the story. If you do not include humidity and wind speed, you might as well be indoors.

A rule of thumb is that the higher the humidity, the lower the comfort temperature.

A rule of thumb is that the higher the wind speed, the narrower the range of the comfort temperature zone.

Answer 3

Personally, I like it about 96, but I live in a fairly dry climate.  If it were humid, about 90 would probably be good.

Answer 4

80

Answer 5

75 or so.  

65 is a bit cool for summer.

Of course, where I live, the summers get over 100, so there are times where 90 degrees feels like a cool day...
