Freedom degrees. Roughly -13° or 38° if you live in the sane parts of the world.

I’d pick triple digits, mostly because I’ve lived in places that routinely hit 100° in the summer, and I hate shoveling snow.

I'd take single digit temperatures over 80+ even, let alone 100+, that's insane, I'm northern born so I start melting around 80, I would die at 100. Hell I'd take double digit negative temperatures only over triple digits

I've lived in both. The generally colder environments with high humidity are worse than adding 10-15° and having low humidity.

When I was a kid we once had a snow storm so bad it took out the entire (small) town's power. People huddled up in the mayor's house because he had a working genny. When the adults had to go out they had to wear goggles or your eyes would start freezing in your skull. Yaaaa Minnesota
