    I’m just curious what everybody prefers in terms of the weather. I usually prefer it to be mildly cold because being in the heat for long periods of time makes me feel sick.

    I prefer fall/winter. Actually if truth be told I like the cold.

    I just find hot weather uncomfortable. The only time I could really enjoy it is if I went abroad, but since I never go anywhere I only experience hot weather in a country that's not accustomed to the kinds of temperatures we're experiencing more of (and where things like air conditioning aren't as readily available.)

    Cold weather is lovely. My favourite is when it's chilly-to-freezing in sunny blue skies.

    It depends. Each have some kind of chore attached to it that I despise (shoveling snow in the winter, weed whacking in the summer). In the regard I prefer early fall, right when the grass stops growing and the leaves are yet to fall.
    As far as enjoying the weather goes, I'd pick hot. So long as I'm allowed to wear shorts and am in an informal setting, I prefer low eighties (Fahrenheit) with a gentle breeze, and plenty of shade to shield me from sunburns. Too hot is a problem, but I prefer waking up sweaty to waking up shivering. I used to thrive in the cold, but now I get cold too easily, and for whatever reason am more intolerant of it than people around me from warmer climates.

    I love it when it's between 10°C - 18°C and sunny (which never happens where I live).

    To live in day to day? 65-75 Fahrenheit (I live in Florida where this never happens because it's too hot though, and used to live in Ohio where this once again never happens because it's too cold...)

    I live in an area that gets very cold in the winter and long for the heat.

    I prefer it to be warm 75-80F (24-27C). If I had to chose between hot or cold, I pick hot. I don't like the extremes, but I'd rather it be 100 degrees than 0 degrees.

    Perhaps not cold enough by some people's standards, but 40 F / 4 C is my "happy spot"

    Really don't like sweating, and break out in the sun

    Cold. Snow is awesome and all the bugs are frozen and dead.
    Plus you can always put more clothes on, you can only take so much off before you can't go out in public any more.

    I prefer cooler temperatures. I'm from Australia and at the moment the weather is really hot which is uncomfortable. But some of my family is from New Zealand, so we often travel over there for the holidays. It's nice as the temperature is perfect where we live in NZ, no matter what season, it's still comfortable!

    Ideally cool or warm. But if I had to choose, cold. There are 4-5 months that have temps that range 20-30+ (celsuis), and the days above 25 make me miserable.

    My ideal day is 50-60F and crystal clear. I care far more about sunshine than I do temperature. I have so much more energy if it's sunny out. Maybe in a past life I was a plant

    I prefer the cold to the heat. To me it's easier to bundle up in the cold versus cool down in the heat.

    I prefer warmer temperatures to colder ones. I don't like extreme temperatures though. I prefer the temps we have in spring. Not cold anymore, but not as hot as summer (Though this year we jumped straight from winter to summer as far as temperatures are concerned). My family and I will be moving to the coast next month, and the humidity is (obviously) higher there, so it'll be a different kind of hot/cold than we're used to. But I'm looking forward to the overall warmer climate the coast offers...

    Beyond the temperatures themselves, I hate wearing winter clothing. Too many layers, too thick, I feel like I can't move.

    Totally agree. Then when you manage to warm up, the satisfying 'cosiness' lasts longer than the achieved feeling of cooling down in the summer. I know I said hot weather may be a more exciting experience if it's abroad, but even then I think I'd still prefer cold weather.

    The cold is so much easier to deal with than the heat.
    Also its so much more comfortable to stay inside bundled up in blankets because of the cold than to be hot and sweaty if you even try to be under a blanket in the heat
