21 FAHRENHEIT is what? *checks a converter* That's -6.4 C.
That isn't cold at all, you don't even need a jacket. Do they really give "freeze warnings" in Florida? Why? I suppose you guys usually don't need winter tires.. so the roads could get dicey.

 

21 Fahrenheit is cold wherever you're from... you might not need a jacket if you have a death wish.

 

In many climates people tend to wear heavy enough clothing and be accustomed to the cold so they don't really need much of a jacket at -5 Celsius unless they’re outside for long periods of time. The converse is also true about people who live in warm enough climates ... while someone like me has difficulty sleeping when it is above 25 degrees in the middle of the night, someone from a warm climate will be un-fazed by that temperature.

Well, yeah, if they wear other warm clothing I agree. I was just picturing someone going outside in a short sleeve shirt for some reason. I guess where I'm from you're usually wearing either a short sleeve shirt or a jacket over it.
