Obviously this only applies to people in the northern hemisphere, but I guess anybody in the south can just go off their past anecdotes.

Where I live it usually rains from August to December, then snows in January, then rains again from February to mid-May. Right now we’ve been getting highs of 75F (~23C) (yes, go ahead and laugh Arizonans) and I’ve just been dying inside. I have my fan constantly on and my car’s A/C is on literally the coldest temperature. I love the rain here and it hasn’t rained for an actual month. We had one (!) overcast day in the past like 3 weeks. I just really wanna wake up to rain and 45F (~7C) again. I know I’ve only got a month and a half til that starts to become a reality, but it’s just passing by so slowly.

It doesn’t help that I’m pretty far north, so the sun has been setting around 8:30 PM with last light as late as 9:30, and then rising at like 5 in the morning. Honestly my favorite time of year is when I get home from work and the sun has already set.

    I hate summer and can’t stand heat. It’s simple: It’s cold? Can always add more layers of clothes. It’s hot? What am I gonna do once I’m out of clothing layers and it’s still too hot, remove my sweating skin?

      Water becomes your friend. Humans were literally designed for hot African weather. Until it reaches the hundreds you should be totally fine even comfortable if you take the right precautions.

      I never feel right in winter gear, it traps a layer of sweat and fails to cover my face. It always disincentivizes me from leaving my heated indoor environments, and no matter how much you wear you still know it’s cold. However I’m fine existing outside from 55-95 degrees.
