People can be comfortable in a wide range of temperatures.... the ability to change clothing allows the comfortable temperature range to be extended.

High humidity can inhibit the body's natural cooling mechanisms and make some warm temperatures uncomfortable that would otherwise be ok with lower humidity.

Likewise, high wind can increase cooling which can help at high temperatures, but be uncomfortable at lower temperatures.

It is also possible to adapt somewhat seasonally as well as adapting to the locale. It can actually be uncomfortable to go from a non-climate controlled area to a climate controlled area (or visa-versa).

A person's activity, or lack of activity also makes a difference.

A good estimate is that people can be comfortable from about 60°F to about 85°F.

Going out skiing with heavy clothing, some activity, a nice sunny day, and not too bad of wind, one might be very comfortable with temperatures somewhat below freezing.

Plunging into 50°F water, however, could be life threatening without the proper protection.

The low 90's might not be bad outside, shaded, on a nice breezy summer day.
