25°F is about −4°C
25°F sits seven degrees below freezing: frosty mornings, icy steps and a cold that gets into the hands first. My call is a winter coat with a warm layer under it, a hat and gloves, and boots with some grip.
Get roasted by your own forecastFree, no account, and you pick how rude I get.
The 25°F kit, as I see it
- Winter coat or long puffer

Questions
Is 25 degrees cold?
Yes. 25°F is about −4°C, and a 15 mph wind takes it to a wind chill of about 13°F.

What to wear running in 25 degree weather?
Runners’ rule of thumb says a run feels about 15 to 20°F warmer than the reading, so 25°F running feels like a 40 to 45°F day: tights, a long-sleeve base layer, a light jacket and gloves.
