Can I build up immunity to cold temperature?

Edit: as the comments said, I used the incorrect word. What I mean is "tolerance"

You can build up resistance. I live in WA, when I visited Spain everyone was shocked to see me perfectly fine in just a t-shirt when it was 55 american degrees out

I've never seen someone refer to Fahrenheit as American degrees, but it makes sense

If you were only wearing a t-shirt, I'm betting people were more shocked at your lack of pants than your tolerance for the temperature.
