    I upvoted this but holy Jesus. I’m stripping off at 18C and the scientifically proven melting point for shiny white people like me is 25C. Edit: it’s very humid here in fairness.

    If you don’t mind me asking, where is it that temperature so regularly? Must be near the equator I’m guessing.

      I’m in Tucson (1.5 hours south of Phoenix) where yesterday my car said it was 33° (unseasonably warm for this time of year). We’re at 32°N latitude, same as Tel Aviv, but the hottest city at this latitude on the planet (other cities at this latitude are cooler overall because of oceanic/continental climatic influences). We usually get 3 weeks of “possible” <10° midday temps from Christmas to mid January, and every year at that time I’m swearing that I need to move to the Caribbean lmao. I’m also not “white”, so that might affect my sun and temperature perception 😆
