Another muggy day of rain. At least yesterday I did laundry (because I was running out of socks) but today was just comfort reading of Witches Abroad. Nights don't go below 20C even if daytime gets no higher than 22 so I feel justified having the window AC on. This also lets me sleep in pyjama bottoms or what I use instead of, and long sleeve shirts, and thus avoids the real nuisance of summer sleeping, which is Fans. Needed to bring cooler air in, which stinks, and needed to move the air around because otherwise I feel too hot,  but the fact is I don't *like* the sensation of air blowing over me. So am grateful for the AC and will worry about the electricity bill when it shows up.

I find your idea of summer heat perennially amusing, just as you would probably find my idea of 'cold' hilarious. My airconditioner at night is set at 24C...

We start our heat alerts at 28. 30 is 'children and old folk stay indoors or go to a cooling centre.' While my Iraqi neighbour goes nostalgic for those lovely 40 degree days back home.

28C during the day is "sweater weather", especially if it's raining.

Like the Arizonians then, in their coats at 25C.

At 25C in my office air-conditioning, if I were wearing a sleeveless dress, I'd probably just add a light shawl or light unlined jacket, being known for my cold tolerance...
