This is 100% true for non-locals and anyone from Upper North/Northeast. My first year living in Vegas I never even wore a sweater--my coworkers thought I was crazy. By my fifth year here, I was wearing light sweaters in the fall/winter. After ten years, I am now a local and I do feel "cold" in the winter. That's when I put on my flannel shirt. Hahaha.
The fur parkas and North Face jackets are only needed if you go up to Mt. Charleston in the fall or if you were born somewhere tropical like....Manila or Thailand.
