These are useful because we aren't very good at judging temperatures -
12 C in the winter and we think it's warm; in the summer we think it's
cold!

There are other factors as well in how warm it _feels_. When I ventured
out for a walk this morning, the local airport was reporting 8 C.
I wouldn't go out without a coat at that temperature in winter but with
a cloudless sky and light wind I was taking the jumper off after a few
minutes brisk walking.
