      My life has been a series of moving to cooler and cooler climates and so far I have yet to regret a move. That said, cooler climates in Australia so maybe I just haven’t witnessed true winter yet

    Four seasons the old fashioned way when people were complaining about a long winter and short summer. I think those people are wrong and it saddens me that global warming made their wish reality

    Temperatures in fahrenheit, because that’s what I think in.

    Winter should be cold and snowy, I’d like there to be about a foot of snow on the ground at all times between December and February.

    Spring should be about in the upper 60s-mid 70s during the day, and rain maybe a couple times a week.

    Summer, I don’t ever want the temperature above the 80s, and humidity should be low with a nice breeze. I also want the occasional really good thunder storm, often enough to keep us out of any sort of drought or burn ban, but not so much that we have flooding issues.

    Fall I’d mostly like to be in about the 50s, cooling off towards the end of the season so that it’s in about the lower 40s or upper 30s for deer season

    Cold. 65F (19C) should be a once in an absolutely never heatwave. Average annual temperatures should be closer to 0F than 0C. Fuck the heat, fuck the Summer, and fuck that stupid ball of plasma it rode in on.

    Bring back snowball earth.

      Me, a Brit, in the north, currently experiencing our version of 19°C:

      I was in Berlin last month during the heatwave. In comparison, 35°C in Berlin is much more tolerable than 24°C in the UK.

        I was in Leipzig at -1° in snow, and you could still walk around in a t-shirt.

        UK is deceptively humid, and it both chills and soaks you to the bone

    About 10 years ago I was happy with 12°C when I used to work outdoors. Cold enough to work hard without working up a major sweat.

    Nowadays, given how it is constantly humid as balls here now, I lean towards 10°C being a similarly comfortable temperature, even 8°C depending on what I’m doing

      Cycling on a sunny winter morning, the first five minutes suck, but afterwards it’s heaven

      25 AVERAGE?! So like 15 at night and 35 during the day is considered not “heat” where you’re from?!

    I’m more or less happy with weather here in the PNW. Not that cold and wet in winter, not that hot and dry in summer. Of course with climate change, ACs are now needed and it actually snows in winter, but traditional weather patterns agreed with me.

    I’m pretty happy having four distinct seasons. I don’t like winter and snow at all, but I think suffering through six months of cold and darkness is exactly why the warmth and sunshine feel so damn good when summer finally comes. Also, with climate change, the climate where I live has - so far - only been getting better. I’m not saying it’s good overall, but it’s not all bad either.

    Cold enough to see my breath in the morning, with rainy and cloudy weather. Short and mild summers, long winters (mid november through march) with occasional heavy but manageable snowfall that brings things to a stop for a day or two, and sticks around for a while. Some nice thunderstorms in the spring, colorful foliage in the fall with some chill.
