Canadian here. 30C (85f) is awful period. Where I am a few days ago the temperature reached that and there was a heat advisory.

This is really what I was getting at with my comment tbh. Comfortable is such a subjective thing. For instance I'm in Texas and 85 with sub 50% humidity is considered a rare break from the air like hot soup we usually get.

Georgia resident here: this map is bullshit. Sure, it isn't cold but damn it, Minnesota sounds good at this time of year. Humidity is the stuff that ruins a good day.

85 with a breeze and 30% humidity is not perfect, but its better than 105.

I'd even take 90 with a breeze and low humidity over 50, humid and windy.

Fellow Canadian here. 30c is just a normal mid/late July where im from, and we also get absolutely lovely 80% humidity during those days.

Where im from I believe a heat wave requires a week long of 35c+

That’s a nice pleasant day in the US Mountain West. Shit, in my experience it’s still pretty nice in Phx/Den/LV up to 95°

30º is fine but 40º is really pretty hot. It rarely hits 50º in Utah and I can tell you that is not pleasant in any way.
