Its 33°F right now but it feels so cold that I really thought it was like 10° out. But a week ago I remember being outside and it felt pretty nice. I checked and the temperature was 36°F. It should feel the same shouldn’t it?
I also notice this happens when the season changes. When summer is ending and the temp starts to drop into the 60s it feels so cold but when winter is ending and it starts to go *up* into the 50s and 60s it practically feels like summer.

The way we feel temperature is how quickly it cools or warms our skin. This is not the same thing as the temperature of an object. High moisture levels makes air feel warmer, and small breezes makes air feel cooler. Often weather reports will include a “feels like” temperature to adjust for moisture.
But from what you mentioned, maybe you have just gotten used to hot or cold weather, and maybe dress as if it was still cold or warm, and thats why it feels a lot warmer or colder than what the weather report says.
