hot or cold weather person?

[elisedance]

This is from the weather topic where we notice that some people love hot weather and others cold.  At first I wondered if that was related to the climate of the birthplace - but then I thought it might be closer to the (likely) temps when you were born.  So question: are you a hot, middle or cold weather person - that what temps do you feel best at (hot  over 32C; cold less than 22C, middle inbetween) and were you born at a hot middle or cold time? [note you could be born in northern canada but in mid summer - which is a warm birth date and vice versa).

Me - cold weather person, born in cold weather (feb, sweden) so I fit

I was born in northern Europe in the middle of summer on one of the hottest days on record 32+

Me - hot weather person, born in hot weather (born in the year of the Fire Horse (Horse stands for south and fire)...so I fit too.

I love hot weather.  I was born in November, so go figure.  November in northern Alabama isn't cold by Canadian standards, but it isn't warm either.  My favorite place that I've ever lived, climate-wise, was south Florida.

I just did some looking over the weather records from Weather Underground.  As it turns out, the day I was born was during what we used to call an "Indian summer" period.  The high that day was 19C, which is warmer than average for that time of year and not too far from the record high for that date.  It must have been pretty sunny that day for the temperature to get that warm, although the records are incomplete.  Winds were from out of the southeast for most of the day; humidity was about 25% during the day and rose after sunset as the temperatures fell.  Overnight low was 0C. 

The next several days were similar, with highs in the 19-21C range.  There was some light rain, and interestingly, several days the weather office noted "smoke" during the overnight hours.  The date I was born is right at the end of the cotton and soybean harvesting period, and it may have been that farmers were burning their fields after harvesting, which used to be pretty common. 

Back then, the airport, and hence the weather office, was in a different part of town.  I'm not sure what effect that has on any of this.

Hah!  And does it mention that the heating system went bezerk that day at the hospital??  Hmm???

Well it was a cool June 28th (19C) in Canada when I was born but I love it around 25C so I would say I am a hot weather person for sure.

Born in Caracas, Venezuela---but love cold weather. It is so invigorating!!

[Lioness]

Well, I like medium weather, usually around 25-35C. I was born in March in Australia, which may or may not have been warm. It was mostly likely in the mid 20s.

so you definitely don't fit the birth-temp relation

I much prefer cooler weather....I become extremely lethargic in hot weather. cooler (not freezing  ) is much more invigorating
I was born in the Netherlands in their summer, but have not spent that much time there. This side of the word it is in winter which suits me just fine :-)

I wish you'd read the OP Q   and.......

I love cold weather and really dislike hot weather. Can't stand the summer here is Oz. Anything over 30C and I die.
I was born in Poland in march which is spring over there and the average is around 15Cish I'm guessing.
I'm such a winter person especially in Poland. I love it when it hits below 0!!
Oh, and I love Snow!!! 

[QPO]

Yes I think people operate much better when it is cooler. Heat is killing....having said that places that get below zero is also not the best just as bad as the heat.

That's what I like about it.
