Kind of humid, and cool (by cool I mean 17–21°C in winter and 20–26°C in summer), without much temperature variation. I don’t know if this climate exists exactly as described, but it would be ideal for me.
Edit: also, somehow, lots of sunlight. I love the sun but hate how warm it gets. Give me an LED sun.
Imperial Beach, CA gets pretty close. We get a bit cooler than that overnight in the “winter.” Never below 4-5° C though.
Anything that is low humidity. Sadly where I live is 50%+ most of the year
The avg. relative humidity here is 73% and avg. temperature 29C (84F). Summers (rainy season) do suck, but in the winter, when it’s cooler and dryer, that’s pretty pleasant. It’s too bad the winter months are smog months. So enjoying the outdoors has become a real exercise.
I do hate wearing lots of (or layers of) clothes, so anything cold or where there’s non-stop rain for weeks isn’t really an option.
Cold. 65F (19C) should be a once in an absolutely never heatwave. Average annual temperatures should be closer to 0F than 0C. Fuck the heat, fuck the Summer, and fuck that stupid ball of plasma it rode in on.
Bring back snowball earth.
Me, a Brit, in the north, currently experiencing our version of 19°C:
I was in Berlin last month during the heatwave. In comparison, 35°C in Berlin is much more tolerable than 24°C in the UK.
I was in Leipzig at -1° in snow, and you could still walk around in a t-shirt.
UK is deceptively humid, and it both chills and soaks you to the bone
For personal physical comfort? Between 23-30 (75-85) with plenty of rain & humidity, not dry air. Am ok with hotter as long as it’s not too dry.
For the world? Well down here before the warming the summers topped around the same they do now, just fewer days of it, so almost 37C, with daily afternoon thunderstorms, and winters were longer (not long, but longer) and likely to have a few days below freezing most years, so I guess for emotional comfort I’d take that, thanks.
San Diego’s.
After living for thirty years in oceanic climate, and now the last two years in subtropical and tropical climate. I definitely prefer tropical. It’s nice to never worry about being cold and not needing a dozen layers.

Cool without snow
A climate of mild paranoia.
About 10 years ago I was happy with 12°C when I used to work outdoors. Cold enough to work hard without working up a major sweat.
Nowadays, given how it is constantly humid as balls here now, I lean towards 10°C being a similarly comfortable temperature, even 8°C depending on what I’m doing
Cycling on a sunny winter morning, the first five minutes suck, but afterwards it’s heaven
Cold as ice
Overcast and cool. Not a fan of bright sunlight
Same, but add in a some patches of rain and I’m golden.
My life has been a series of moving to cooler and cooler climates and so far I have yet to regret a move. That said, cooler climates in Australia so maybe I just haven’t witnessed true winter yet
North German climate from 30 years ago. 4 seasons, each about three month long. Not baking hot in the summer, but still a nice summer. Snow in winter, sometimes frozen lakes. But maybe I’m idolizing the past and it has never been like that here.
tropic semi-warm, i.e. 26°C and frequent rain
ideally it rains a lot (almost daily) but otherwise the air isn’t moist, sothat it still feels cool
I’m more or less happy with weather here in the PNW. Not that cold and wet in winter, not that hot and dry in summer. Of course with climate change, ACs are now needed and it actually snows in winter, but traditional weather patterns agreed with me.
