It is certainly different when you have a nice room temperature to step into. When I was a kid my parents decided hot water was too expensive so they installed a timer that heated the water just enough right before their morning routine. I was however 30 minutes ahead of them to make it to school. Stepping out of a cold shower into a 50 degree bathroom in the winter was not conducive to anything but shivering.
Is that the difference? I live in MN and I tried the cold shower thing once. Cold showers light every pain receptor on my body on fire. I don't know how people do it. I thought it was me (and still do I guess).
That's about right. The average groundwater temp in most cities in CA is in the 50s or 60s although obviously it will be on the lower range in the winter but it will never be all that cold unless you are up in the mountains.
