Do you prefer the hot or cold weather?

[Touchfuzzy]

Its OK, I prefer cold weather and I live in the US South. Hot humid sticky mess.


Granted, I'm not bothered until it gets to super extremes in either direction. Like, I don't think I would like Finland winter.

 

[Scinaya]

Yeah, the extremes to both directions get nasty. Temperate all year long would be quite nice. 15-25 C or 60-70 F -ish. I believe I would also dislike the heatwaves, if those were very hot and half a year along.

I am a pretty versatile guy so I love both and I hate both of them so I don't have specific weather I love more or less but I really love windy day

I lean more to enjoying the cold, but I don't like snow & ice.  We live rural with a steep curvy gravel driveway and ice is no fun at all. Anywhere from about 40 to 75 I am happy though.  I really dislike being too hot, it makes me miserable and miserable to be around I am sure!  It's super rainy here right now, but not cold (about 60 F) and I am good with that.  I lived in Utah for a couple years and ugh I swear it'd be 80+ F one day and snowing the next.  I missed spring & fall so much there.  Now in Oregon you pretty much just get spring & fall, maybe a month of summer and a light winter most years but that's just how I like it...my husband not so much he misses the long warm summers.

I was doing roofwork once in 102 degree weather (F obviously). I actually took a thermometer up there to check the temp right above the black shingles on a sunny day. It was about 125F. And it was so humid. We had to work like 10 minutes at a time then resoak our headrags in cool water and drink gatorade for 10 minutes then go back to work for 10 minutes etc.

 

[Scinaya]

Haha, that is just terrible. It doesn't even get that hot in here except in very rare cases. You need a new award, 'Thermoeagle'.

 

[Touchfuzzy]

It was literally one of the worst experiences of my life.


As for the actual topic, I'm really kind of comfortable anywhere between about 50 and 85 degrees (~10-30C). I grew up in an old plantation house with no central heat and air, so we were just kind of used to sometimes it being hot, sometimes it being cold. We had wood heat in a few rooms, and in the summer we had a couple of rooms with window units, but most of the house was just whatever the temp outside is.


That being said, I am generally still more comfortable with it going below 50 than above 85.

Cold weather. I love autumn/winter fashion. Me and my laptop don't overheat and I spend much less on electric bills.

It can go as low as 2 degrees but haven't seen it snow.

Winter is cold. You can wear stuff to keep yourself warm though.

On contrary what the heck can you do against the summer sun?

Anything against heat is a temporary solution.

Yeah summer has warm sea and stuff but I love winter, the rain, the Christmas decorated roads and houses with lamps and stuff.

It's more psychedelic and more cozy (we seek warmth and cuddling).

 

[doncht]

Cold for sure. It's so much to sleep and cuddle on it.

I have a weird body temperature system than normal human(believe it or not up to you), my other else body parts except my head will like normal human, but my head is around 37.4 - 38.2 Celcius degree. I can produce sweat around my head even with Air Conditioner ON. So I prefer cold for this case, but not to cold because my head need to adapt with the temperature too, and if it's to cold I'll can get dizzy.

I was born in Florida but can't deal well with the heat, so I understand how you feel Scinaya.    Then again my parents come from New England (I'm an air force brat).

Good thing I live in New England now.  Really I'm not a huge fan of very hot or very cold weather. 

 

[Nivlacart]

I live in Singapore. It's hot and it's really humid. You sweat and it won't evaporate. I hate the heat.

I've only been in countries that are cold a few times and I think cold's great. There's so much room for fashion too, people in those countries are always dressed really nice.

Over here we try to get as comfortable as we can, so the view isn't very great.

 

[Oddball]

I hate being hot. I want to move to Alaska A.S.A.P

 

[lord_steak]

We're getting our first snow right now.  I love it.  Probably won't stick, but still.

 

[TheoAllen]

There is no winter nor summer here in Indonesia.

But I prefer cold. I'm used to it. Whenever I went to hot place, I get thirsty so easily

 

[Gradian]

Cold weather. I went to England in my childhood and I really love the cold weather, since I come from a purely tropical area where there's only two seasons: hot season (according to my friend's international friend, quite the same if not sometimes hotter than summer in 4 season climates) and wet seasons.

While wet season can be cold at times, it's more of a hassle because it's wet everywhere (and heightens mosquito growth which is not good). I would more prefer cold weather without the rain.

 

[bluebird]

I much prefer the cold weather.  I'm too fluffy to handle warm weather very well, and sweating birds are not a good sight to see.  Plus, look at it this way.  If you're cold, you can always put some form of clothing on to make it better.  If you're hot....well....once you get down to the skivvys, there's not much more you can go.

 

[Deathspecter]

I'm from south Portugal, where we have a 26ºC average year temperature and I have to say I prefer...
