I hate summer and can't stand heat. It's simple: It's cold? Can always add more layers of clothes. It's hot? What am I gonna do once I'm out of clothing layers and it's still too hot, remove my sweating skin?

I for one support becoming a walking skeleton
Water becomes your friend. Humans were literally designed for hot African weather. Until it reaches the hundreds you should be totally fine even comfortable if you take the right precautions.
I never feel right in winter gear, it traps a layer of sweat and fails to cover my face. It always disincentivizes me from leaving my heated indoor environments, and no matter how much you wear you still know it’s cold. However I’m fine existing outside from 55-95 degrees.
See, this just fucking baffles me, because I know humans evolved for tropical climates, but according to science (Google) the optimal temperature for sleeping is 60-65 F?!
Go camping, night time is usually cold even on hot days.
I live in a similar climate but it's a little warmer than where you're at now. Actually summers are the only time I don't feel like I'm suffering, since as I've grown older I'm cold all of the time. I was just in Alaska last weekend and it was chilly and rainy. Perhaps that's more your speed, though it does stay light pretty late.
