27 degrees is ridiculously hot, it was something like 10 degrees here and I had a long sleeve shirt I was sweating while I was out.

They come from a grey land with no sun.

I'm surprised they lasted as long as they did.

To be honest British weather seems comfy as fuck to me, it looks like what our spring looks like and that's my favourite season.
Their winter seems boring though I love snow and they don't seem to get much of it

I can guarantee you that you wouldn't be able to hike for 8 hours in 27 degree heat in full gear.

Does Australia even have special forces?

>grey

>snow

you know there are actually four seasons right? you are only describing winter.
>>
>>73463683
We do, SASR.
I think humidity would play a big role in this, dry heat, what we usually have here, is easier to deal with than a really nasty wet humid heat.
There's also the fact that we live in a toasty ass country so we're better suited and equipped to deal with the heat
>>
>>73461765
Because, as always, British weather usually remains within a nondescript middle ground that is neither too hot nor too cold.
We're just not experienced enough to fully appreciate the limits.

This is a shitty bait thread and only serves to accelerate Canada's assent to the Number 1 Shit Posting position.
>>
>>73463702
There's barely four seasons here
From October to February no blue sky's, just snow and cold
March is a weird month it can either be nice and sunny or cold and snowy
April is similar sometimes it's rainy but there's always one last snow storm
Finally in May Spring starts but spring can be rainy a lot
By June to August it gets really hot and sunny
September is nice it's my favourite season, not too hot, not too cold, usually sunny not really rainy, no snow but it's just one month and gets cold really quickly by the end of the month.

>27 degrees is ridiculously hot

I get highs of 46 (115F) in the Summer and I mostly work outside. I don't live in the desert. I would kill for 27 to be the highest.
>>
>>73463683

Lol, we did that EVERY DAY for PT in nearly 43c and thats just the fucking way it is in some places, no one had a problem and fuck, I'm from the north.

Ya'll must have some weakass punks in your military.
>>
>>73464108
I wish it was the highest here, it can get to 40 Celsius here during a heat wave. Summer is normally around 30 it's unbearable I pretty much just sit in my boxers with a fan in my face all day.

That explains why 30 here in the summer is almost unbearable. Not even just because of being in Canada and being used to cold, but it can get so humid it's hard to breathe.

We're a lot more used to extreme weather changes. Between blazing summers and -30 winters with 6 feet of snow.
>>
>>73461765
Fucking pussies. During the summer it regularly reaches 40-45C easy here, and more than a handful 50C.
A/C regularly goes out all the time. Inside my house it'll go to 45C on a hot day at night 38C. Fans do no good at all at this heat, it feels like a heater pushing hot air on you.
These morons probably weren't drinking water. Key is stay hydrated, you'll be perpetually covered in sweat, but alive.

Oh yeah? When i was in special forces we marched 80 kilometres a day in nearly 60 degrees celsius. American lazy pigs can't get on our level

Summer can be really bad for my breathing, I have really mild asthma but in summer sometimes it gets hard. Especially when it's going to rain my breathing gets bad, I can always tell when a storm comes because I can feel it in my lungs.
Winter feels okay though the air feels a lot fresher if that makes sense

I get 33° every fucking day here.

I get 24° on a fucking night with a storm on the rain season and that feels like a freezer.

Arizona is ridiculous though. 115F weather is too much.

Literally moving from A/C to A/C and avoiding being outside.

>I'm Australian/American so I'm used to trekking in 27 degree heat, carrying hundreds of lbs of gear with no food or water

I'm amazed that all of them died though because there's almost fucking nowhere in England where you won't hit a stream or river within an hour of walking in one direction. I know these tests can be harsh as fuck though so it's possible they had little sleep / food / water in the preceding days.

You're kidding right? 80F is like a gool day in Texas. The rest of the time it's 100 - 110 degrees and that's not even factoring in the near 100% humidity. Just fucking kill us already if we don't fucking die mowing the lawn or some other mundane shit. Literally hell on Earth every other day.

Shit at 27c I have to debate whether or not its hot enough for a swim.

>>73463358
I invited a Canadian work m8 along to a party once. It was about 10c. Everyone was rugged up, but he was there in just a t-shirt and he wasn't even shivering. My mujm thought was some poor foreigner and couldn't afford warm clothes. She spent half the night trying to me me give him my jacket, she didn't stop until i got drunk enough to tell her to fuck off

>>73461765
I guarantee that if the temperature in the middle east dropped to below freezing, every sandnigger would freeze to death.
This is simply a situation where historically, the region does not reach those temperatures and thus the local people are unprepared when the change in temperature necessitates a change in behavior
>>
>>73463683
>Everything about Australia makes me jealous

And for good reason leaf. We have best in the world. All of the U.S special forces and the British SAS are sent here to learn off of us
A 8 hr walk in 27c heat should not be a killer. Especially when you reach British SAS level of fitness/endurance

When i was 14 i would work in cotton fields in 45 degree heat starting at first light 7 days a week for 10 hours a day

tell me about it, 16 degrees and i was greasy without a shirt, had to go full regimental cause i was getting morning fog on the buttshrub.
