Come summer much over 80 starts to get pretty uncomfortable at a minimum I have jeans and a long sleave workshirt on and quite often throw in a flame retardent suit. I've gone down multip times from heat exhaustion never once have I come close to frostbite or hypothermia. I will give you that bathroom breaks suck in winter trying to remove or reach through all those layers can be shall we say problematic.
The delicious irony...I did construction in Texas in the summer for a decade. Recall my family biz is contracting. Nothing like being in an attic doing some HVAC work on a 112-degree day outside, inside in the attic it is 140+. Wearing jeans and a work-shirt, because the attic isn't the place for lots of exposed skin. You have to hydrate constantly. Take frequent breaks and pace yourself. The hottest days are the hardest but no worse than the coldest days are. Extremes suck on both ends, you simply have to learn how to work at both ends.
