In the Middle East, the winters are brutally cold and the locals suffer. Tourists from colder regions come there to enjoy their winter vacation in December or January, because it’s paradoxically quite warm. They only pack their normal spring clothes because it isn’t really that cold in their opinion. You know, a thin coat, maybe a thin summer beanie. You’ll probably be ok without any mittens. Also, you can wear normal shoes which is nice.

MutilationWave@lemmy.world 18 hours ago0 is an extremely cold winter. Like you’re going to die very quickly if you’re outside without extreme weather gear.
Where I’m at, mid east coast, we only have a few days each winter get below 20, which is already hellishly cold.
