I live just a little south of the border but was born and raised in Buffalo and have met plenty of Canucks who think that 60 is too hot.
Tough crowd......
That’s because 60 is too hot if you are properly acclimatized for northern climes. This December has been insanely warm. It’s 36 (F) right now, and probably reached over 40 today. While I was in short sleeves, I did throw on a light fleece jacket a couple of times when I went out to keep my wife happy, but I was really overheating in it. I have a really bad habit of wearing something to work because my wife is cold, but not remembering to wear it home, because I’m not cold.
Enough of the Oregonian is still in me, however, that I won’t swim if it isn’t at least 70. Some of the natives are nuts. At least wait until all of the ice in the lake is melted so that you won’t cut your head on it when you dive in.
