I almost never wear a coat. 46 degrees isn’t freezing. If the car was parked in a garage, the car wasn’t 33 degrees when they got into it. What do you think is going to happen?
Op - did dad day the baby screamed and screamed every time outside? If not, what is the issue. Baby clearly wasn’t uncomfortable and you can’t get sick from being cold AND those temps are not too concerning.

It was 33 degrees when he left the house. Now I’m even more angry that he thinks the high temp of the day is the same as the current temp.
Of course he didn’t forget to take a coat for himself.
Would you be mad if your DH took out a 2yo in the cold without a coat?
Yes, I would be mad. DD is 2. It's Mom and Dad's job to decide if a 2 year old wears a coat-she's not old enough to rationally decide. If she was, say, 10-then yes, natural consequences- but she's a toddler and it's parents job to protect her from the elements.

I would also be mad. My DH was like this. Took great care of himself but not the kids. I don't get it.

Another person from a Very Cold Place, and I would not care if my kid went to ride around in the car without a coat if the weather was 35 degrees or above. We took our 3YO and 5YO out to dinner tonight and they both refused coats. I decided not to fight them on it -- natural consequences and all.
If we were walking, that would be a different story. If it was 20 degrees outside, again-- that would be a different story.
