It means that the low temperature will vary between 15 and 19 degrees.
That's a nice spring day in Celsius, but it's bitter cold in Fahrenheit. |

The word "teens" is used to describe the numbers between 13-19, or more loosely 10-20.
This is so because the ending of the words end with 'teen', for instance: thirteen.
So "upper teens" is described as being in between 15 and 19 degrees, as Jamie has stated. |
