Hi. I’m new here and just wanted to start a casual discussion. Share your thoughts! 😊
Thanks so much for all of your opinions and responses.
Yes. I love the cold, lack of sweat, comfy clothes and being cozy at home while it’s cold outside.
I dislike that hanging clothes tomdry takes forever unless it’s an exceptionally dry day.
Most definitely prefer winter. I moved from the south to the north US and I adore all of the snow, cold, and lack of sun. Don’t have to apply sunscreen and can go sledding. Summer in the north sucks cuz there’s not as much AC as there is down south.
One thing I miss are the cicadas and frogs. There’s some up here, but they don’t get in a chorus nearly as much as back home. The summer storms I miss a lot too. Apparently the closer you get to the equator, the more thunderstorms happen. I do not miss the temps getting into the 100Fs WITH 100% humidity.
No love for autumn? It’s the best weather and the best produce in season.
I do not. Seasonal depression beats me up and makes me exhausted. I love being in the sun
If I could afford to live somewhere that was summer every single day I would.
No, even here I like summer better than winter. Love the long days, the afternoon storms, it’s too hot but that still feels better to me than cold. Plus the snowbirds go back to their summer homes up north so traffic gets easier.
Winter is nice for gardening though, can grow more things here in the winter.
Florida? NW here.
West Central Florida, the growing zone 10. Those daily thunderstorms in the summer are so beautiful. When I was a kid they were like clockwork, then they failed and there was a drought, but they seem to be back for now. Even the flooding in the parks, the “seasonal wetlands” as my ex used to call them, it is so beautiful, wading birds and frog noises. Love summer.
Thank you for the comment and beautiful photo.
I loved winter when it was actually snowing. Now I prefer spring I think.
Man, thinking about that makes me so depressed. Growing up we’d have the snow cover lasting for months on end during the winter, commonly several feet of snow too. These days we’re lucky if the snow remains for a week before it thaws even at the height of December.
It is amazing how circumstances will mould the things we want. Our yard has been covered by 5 feet of snow since December. All I want is to see some green…
Here in Poland, we have significantly less snow than we used to, but I just enjoy the atmosphere of winter. I totally understand you.
I haaaatteeeee summer. Spring I’ve got a feeling of impending doom cos it’s round the corner. Everything is too hot, too bright and too light. Fucking hate it
Summer in the Pacific Northwest is now just smoke season so, with the exception of like a week during June, my asthmatic ass hanging out inside from March til October, thank you.
Totally agree.
Wanna come hang out at mine? The curtains are half shut at all times during summer.
It really depends on where I am. Winter in a city sucks. Winter in the mountains is awesome. Summer in Phoenix sucks. Summer on the Albanian Riviera is awesome.
Winter is the best! No need for air conditioning and the fact that we get to use sweaters and blankets all season. Plus the hot drinks are nice and warm you up.
I’m a summer kind of person, but it’s not like I hate winter or anything. There’s just fierce competition.
I’m from India and where I live, summer gets unbearably hot. In my opinion there is nothing in summer to look forward to except mangoes. Winter is wayy better. In my place, it doesn’t even get cold except in the early mornings. Once it’s a proper day, you wouldn’t even know it’s winter. It’s just a less hot summer.
I live in the southeast of the US. Winter is my favorite and summer is miserable. Even spring might as well be summer here. I miss the snow from my childhood in the northeast.
Nope. I love warmth and sunlight.
- Summer is best.
- Spring is good because it means awful cold, miserable, grey Winter is over.
- Autumn is next and it’s nice enough but tempered by the terrible knowledge that dull, gloomy, icy Winter is coming.
- Winter is worst. Three fucking months of misery and dejection. Not even Christmas makes up for it.
