So what temperature would you rather experience, 50 or 90 degrees F (10 or 32 C)? You can only pick those temperatures.

Me, I'll take 50 any day of the week.

90 for me. I like cool days but I'm a true Floridian now.

I like mixed seasons... my favorite time being now in NJ.

60s-70s during the day and 40s at night.

Being surounded by the ocean it rarely gets above 95-98 here but the humidity stays at a nice, constant 110% for 8 months out of the year

I nearly froze my butt of snowmobiling in Utah earlier this year. I forgot what snow and winter was all about

The humidity took some getting used to too!

When I got off the plane it was like breathing in a puddle!

Its a high of 32 here all year round. I'll stick with 10. It's frigid but much more bearable than hot and humid.

I made the opposite move a few years ago--from my native Ft. Lauderdale to Chicago. I prefer the cool days myself now. Unfortunately, there are far too many where it's well below 50.

I've spent most of my life in Florida. The air in the summer basically smacks you in the face.

I would much rather be cold than hot. I hate hot weather. Anything about 90 can take a hike!

50F any day, any time.

You can always put more clothes on to keep warm, but you can only take off so much before they arrest you!

I grew up in Louisiana and Florida, and NEVER cared to be hot, always hated it.

Oh, and i_got_a_mohawk, if you think Florida was bad, try Louisiana, much MUCH worse.



I'm rather enjoying North Carolina, even when it gets "hot" (the temperature routinely breaks 100 here in late summer), the humidity is so low I don't even notice it unless I'm in direct sunlight. Even the coldest days here are not unbearable...

It's not that cold to me either, but many people consider that to be chilly.

50.



You folks picking 90 must live in areas with little/no humidity
