    Autumn. Specifically, November. Because by then we can know that Summer is finally going away. In November I can finally wear long pants!!!! Yay!

    Wait. Summer goes away? :laugh:

    Briefly. Very very briefly. We get Autumn-ish temperatures in November, December, January, and a bit of February. Then Summer comes back.

    Officially our seasons are Winter, Spring, Pre-Summer, Summer, Monsoon, Post-Summer, Autumn, Winter again.

    In reality, it's Intense-Autumn, Hint-O-Spring, Pre-Summer, Allergy, Summer, Monsoon, 2nd Summer, Post-Summer, Allergy, Light-Autumn, Intense-Autumn again.

    Awesome, lol. Monsoon suggests AZ/NM - I have had the misfortune of living in Phoenix, didn't like it, though some of the other desert areas are actually quite lovely. Here, we get summer and slightly-less-summer, but they could just as easily be labelled: it's hot, it's *really* hot, it's a hundred and HOW many?, what is a red air quality warning?, what's on fire today?, why is it still so hot?, at least it's finally cooled off enough at night to sleep now, ye gods does it ever end?, it's actually not that bad out today, was that a raindrop?, Tule fog, and how is it summer again already?

    Good job! Tucson. I hate Phoenix with a burning passion, avoid it like the plague. But I love Tucson. All except for August. August is misery wrapped in agony. Raindrops are little tiny rare pieces of joy.

    Tuscon is *definitely* a lot nicer than Phoenix, no question. But I would not be surprised to learn that you're also still in the 100s right now... I live in that extra-scorching part of my own (temporary) state, that super-hot band that runs from Death Valley (only 129 this summer!) and parts of the Mojave, up through Bakersfield and Fresno (also hit the 120s this summer), and through to Sacramento (where I believe the high was only about 118).

    Summer. I thrive in heat and sun. Only thing about winter that excites me are boots and Game of Thrones.
  • I love fall. Its pretty nice, since I actually see the sun more instead of it raining half the time. Plus I love to go swimming.

    I love the winter because I love the cold. I love the chill in the air and how the cold hits your skin. Crazy as it may sound, I don't always wear a coat in the winter so I can fully enjoy cold. I only wear a coat when it's below freezing, under 32 degrees F. I always look best in the winter because my hair is not as frizzy, and I don't get acne. Christmas is also another reason why I like the winter.

    Fall. Not too hot, not too cold, lots of cute clothing options.

    Winter, for snowboarding. And I like cooler weather. Winter in my area means upper 50s to lower 60s, which is perfect in my eyes.

    I pretty much love all seasons except winter. My faves would be a tie between spring and fall. I love the mild weather of these. Kind of excited for fall coming up. The leaves changing into beautiful, vibrant colours, cozying up with hot chocolates and matcha lattes (only on my cheat days until I hit my GW!), the bite in the air, running outside in said air and being able to wear cardigans/ light sweaters with no jackets.....yup, I'm geared for fall! I will miss the summer wardrobe, though- it's been a particularly great motivator during my journey these past few months.

    I live in Portland, OR and we have two seasons: Rainy and Not-Quite-As-Rainy. Both have their merits and their downsides.

    September is the least rainy month of the year, and the temperature is very nice with highs in the 70's and lows in the 50's. I'm happy that my favorite month of the year has finally arrived!

    Spring is the best for me, after going through the winter it is nice to see some green.

    :drinker: Although we don't really have a full on winter where I live, when it gets below 65 I get cold. I like when the warm comes back...
  • Summer!!!!!
    Shiny, happy people. Tans. Lake. Beach. Green. Blue. Storms. Heat. Sun. Boats. Smell of sunscreen. Favorite candle: Sun and Sand. Soooo many things! I'm just so happy in the summer! I need to live in a place where it's summer all the time!
  • for me it has to be winter, I love the cold. I love walking outside and getting lung shock the air is so cold. walking during an easy snowfall, everything is muted and quiet, until you really hear the sound of the snowflakes hitting the ground. im a natural furnace, I generate enough heat to have people sitting next to me start sweating. once the temp gets above 40 dregree I start getting uncomfortable. when its above 90 it literally hurt being outside.


    its funny too, my brother is the polar opposite, heat is his thing, the hotter the better.

    I suffer through a Queensland summer to enjoy a blissful winter.

    I don't deal well with humidity and being warm blooded prefer to exercise without dripping in sweat before I have even started.

    No mossies in winter too ...
  • Winter cause the sun's not as strong and I have an excuse to wear long sleeves/pants to hide from the sun (I'm allergic to sunscreen D:)

    I like all seasons, especially the beginnings but I do like Fall and Spring alot because of the cooler temps. The temps are cool enough to wear a hoodie or warm enough to wear shorts.

    I like spring because of the lovely flowers but I love summer the most. I just LOVE the sun, and feeling the heat on my skin. I tend to just hide in my bed all winter lol
