And warm enough that mom will let her play in the rain. My 3 year old considers the perfect weather to be rainy enough for lots of puddles but without thunder and lightning.

To Kirk a 10 on the Melish meter is probably not too cold that you need a bulky jacket but not so hot that you sweat, no clouds for good ball visiblity and zero wind so he can work on his slice without having to adjust. As long as you realize where Kirk's priorities are and adjust accordingly I don't really have a problem with the Melish meter. But I do agree that it's biased to what he enjoys doing outside. I went backpacking Saturday and summitted Springer mountian in the fog and drizzle. I love the smell of wet rhotodendrens so I'd have to give Saturday a 10 on my meter even though Kirk would have called it a zero. I’ve heard Kirk talking to Scott Slade about golf more than once.
