That dude probably buys plain potato chips and brakes while driving uphill.

Successful return to the ordinary world, but the hero is changed by the experience.

Russian generals:

That's 15.5°C for non-Americans.  For me, that's T-shirt weather.  For people who perhaps have an iron deficiency or some circulatory system problem, that's sweater/jacket weather.

15 C in t-shirt? No. Brr. But then I've seen people in t-shirts in 2 C, London. It was October. Florida is probably hotter than where I live though. But too much sunshine days and hours in summers.

I think it is about getting used to the climate in a region too. When I was living in Istanbul, I was used to colder weather. But of course the city is surrounded with inner seas, it's not really cold weather. I haven't seen snow in 15 years since I moved to Aegean site. Just in the air.

Also when I lost significant amount of weight after the pandemic, I've started to get cold and the doctor told me it would be about the B12 vitamin levels following a diet to lose weight. And as the tests confirmed it's low (fell around to 250), I thought that would be the case. She gave me B12 shots, and it's now over 700, but I still get much more colder than I did at my previous weight in winter. Especially my feet. Now, I am wearing fuzzy boots at home with fuzzy socks. And it doesn't get really cold here.

In 1980 I moved from Montana, where it was about 20° below zero F, to Dallas, where it was 32° F, and was wearing a T-shirt when I got off of the plane. It felt balmy!

When I lived in Miami the TV stations would seek out Canadian tourists when it got "cold" in Florida. The visitors were suntanning, the reporter would be in a heavy coat. Every year like clockwork.

It is a humid subtropical climate and maintains warm temperatures throughout the year, so I'm with the Canadians on this one.

I've seen frost in Miami.

'76 it snowed in Fort Lauderdale. We don't have proper winter gear. Thus a few "bag lady" days each winter season.
