        I’ve always heard this. Helped with pit on a friend’s dad’s drag car when I was a kid. It makes sense, but I’ve never looked into how large of an effect it actually is.

      Rain here is a summer thing and that is wonderful, cools everything off, beautiful lightning and rainbows.

      Rain in the winter is nonsense. It is so cold and you get wet and even more cold. Although - winter rain is not windy or sideways like summer storms so an umbrella does avail. But yes. Cold rain sucks.

        Summer rain is fine when in normal amounts. It’s not fine when it rains every single day for the first 3 weeks of July and the temps drop to 10°C under what they should be.

        Conpletely agreed fuck winter rain. Especially when it should be snowing or when it snows for a couple hours just wnough for it to begin sticking around and then after liek 10cm falls it starts raining. Fuck that cannot even have snow for a day? Or it snows then rains the next day. Yeah just ruin my mood firther why don’t you.

    I genuinely feel like people who say they love 85+ degree (F) weather belong in an institution. I have met some of these people.

      Hi! I‘m one of them. Though 85F (30°C) is not that much, that’s barely enough to cool down in the pool. I also like 110 degree (42°C) showers. Also, my idle body temp is only about 96F (35,5°C)

      Seems like there’s some correlation with your average Florida Man and many of them seem to belong in an institution too.

      I am one of these people. I feel like I’m only truly warm for a few days out of the year (I live in the UK…). The heatwaves we had this year, whilst environmentally devastating/concerning, at least warmed my core for a good few weeks.

      85 is not bad at all unless you have to work in the sun.

      I am on a special interest forum, been a member for a long time and it’s got people around the world. A lady in Sweden said she was absolutely dying from the heat, could not sleep, because it was 23 degrees. Our AC is set to 78F most of the time and I am cool at that temp, but she would melt?

      It really has to be what you grew up with. A real winter would kill me, I don’t know how people deal with it. Putting on clothes, taking off clothes, never really being warm, short daylight, hot food immediately getting cold because the cold air steals its heat, car won’t start but standing at bus stop so freezing then the bus uncomfortable because you are bundled up, WTF Winter People? What is it you like, or do you just like winter like we have here, the Swedish summer weather?

      I can’t wait until my wife and I reach the: it’s time for a hot tub age. We’re not quite there yet, but winter offers us a lot of cold for the joy when it arrives.

      Nah, summer is super depressing. All I have the energy for is to lie under a fan and slowly melt into a puddle of listless, sweaty sadness and long for death. In the winter, I’ve actually got the energy to get up and get shit done, build a snowman, frolic. Less sun is less headache too, so bonus points for it being dark all the time.

        I guess it helps I live at a higher latitude where summer isn’t as hot (although it’s getting hotter every year)

    Hate Summer because heat

    Hate Winter because cold and depressing ( IDGAF about people moaning that heat is depressing, in Winter everything is depressing since snow went extinct )

    Gimmie warm late Spring all the day tho. Maybe with water warm like at the end of summer. Perfect mix.

    I am a hot weather enjoyer, I like it because I can use flipflops and have cold drinks, and I hate how people who live in the desert (like me) have the guts to say “holy f_ck, what a hot weather we have, huh”. Dude, you live in a fucking oven, and it’s turned on, it’s like say that the water does get things wet.

    British summer is nice if you have air conditoning, otherwise it’s hell. British winter is nice for exactly 24hrs if it ever snows. You know that first 24hrs when it’s deathly silent at night because the snow is deadening all the sounds, and when you get up in the morning and the snow is still fluffy? That’s when British Winter is good. The rest of the time, the snow melts but not enough so it just turns to ice, you’re slipping everywhere, it’s freezing cold and extremely wet so you’re just completely soaked at all times.

    Autumn and Spring don’t exist. You have Cold, Hot and Overcast.

    I’m from Oklahoma. Let me give you an overview of our seasons, beginning with

    Spring: Starts mild, ends warm. Thunderstorms, hail, tornadoes, and flooding are the main stories here.

    Summer: Hot and muggy throughout. No clouds, rain, wind, relief. All you can do is make your clothes wet. Sometimes, I just point a leaf blower up my shirt. And at my testicles. I take cold showers all summer. It’s about the only way I can cool down enough to get some sleep.

    Autumn: It’s like spring, but in reverse. Thunderstorms and tornadoes do happen, but rarely are they strong.

    And finally - Winter: Nothing happens in a typical winter. It might snow a couple times in Central OK. And that’s really it. Once or twice every decade, we might get a historic winter storm. But most years are super uneventful and mild. It freezes most nights in deep winter, but only just.

    In short, all four seasons are trying to kill you, but winter isn’t trying that hard. Spring and autumn are briefly nice. The average temperature might be 72, but what’s being left out is that it could be 91 on Monday, 49 on Wednesday, and 87 on Saturday. Or it could be between 65 and 75 all week. You never truly know until you get there.

    At least it’s not, say, Iowa. I know for a fact their summers are almost as hot as ours, but their winters are waaaaaayyyyy colder.

    I’ve tried to tell my wife many times that it is just as hot and humid here as it is where she’s from in Mississippi. Dew point is dew point, no matter where you are. It’s just that the humidity here goes away sooner and stays away for longer. And we don’t typically get tornadoes on Thanksgiving or Christmas. The southeast definitely does.

    Anyway, we vacationed in Seattle last September, and - cost of living be damned - now I want to live there. If not for the weather, then at least for the seafood. But I love my nieces and nephews too much to be that far from them.

    Long as there are furs and fluffy stuffings for outerwear, winter can continue to be enjoyed. Step out into it naked and the fun stops
