Last night's commute was weird. It was December 10, normally a cold day, and we would expect it to be also windy or damp or downright wet and maybe both windy and wet. It was 55ºF or so. I had my ski mittens, so I kept those on and took my jacket off. I had cycling tights and a short sleeve jersey on. The tights are warm. So picture a guy on a bike wearing short sleeves and mittens. That's what I looked like. My arms were just a little cold, but the rest of me was warm, and if I had worn anything else, I would have been too hot. Weird.
