OP tried so hard to rephrase it...
was this was ghost written by anakin skywalker
I didn't like summers or winters where I used to live, so I moved to somewhere where I like both seasons. Then moved again to somewhere that I love all four seasons.
But I get what you're saying; you're describing the summers of my childhood. Hot and humid so you feel like you need a cold shower within 5 minutes of walking outside. Sticky by day, swarmed by mosquitos at night.
But you lost me at the sand bit. I love the beach and ocean when it's like 10-30Β°C out. Colder and hotter are okay, too, but not as nice.
It depends om where you live. Sumner is not like what you write everywere. π
Yep. Winter in Michigan is a long gray hell. The summers are beautiful though! Itβs enough that by June youβve forgiven yourself for moving to a place with winters like that, until itβs January again and youβre wishing for a single ray of sunshine.
Here it used to be very nice every summer, but these days it is always unbearably hot and there's a 1/3 chance that there's smoke from forest fires and always heavy water and fire restrictions.
I love the spring and summer. I have fibromyalgia and the pain and fatigue is much better during the warmer months. I like the sunny weather as it cheers me up. The people outside make me feel like I'm on a holiday even when I'm not. It's the time of the year I feel the most motivated to do anything and I actually have the energy to do it.
Aside from that, the summer heat doesn't bother me that much. It's much better than the freezing cold for me. Unless it's almost 40Β°C, but I don't think anyone likes these high temperatures.
I agree with you about the mosquitoes, though.
It definitely is for me, with pretty much the same reasons as the ones you've listed. I spent most of the last two summers indoors, because the heat was just unbearable. My friends and I hung out in the evenings, when we could take short walks without discharging a small lake's worth of sweat. I can't wait for autumn to arrive.
Summer is absolutely dogshit terrible. Anyone who claims they like it is lying to themselves. It's muggy, hot, humid, touristy, expensive. What is there to like?
Allergies by day, mosquitoes by night, heat during work, rain during leisure, it can get pretty bad. Autumn is awesome, it's nicer out with no forces of nature used against anyone and the festivities and aesthetics are amazing, but Spring and Summer make the wait challenging.
Summer is orders of magnitude less painful all around than winter. Fall, now, that is the absolute best time of year. Not too hot not too cold, nor too wet. Just purfick
Absolutely.
I can put on more clothes, but I can't strip my skin. I mean, with enough dedication I probably could...
Hot season is my least favorite, but I come to love the rainy season for being cooler & more dynamic even if it can sometimes be inconvenient
Getting worse every year too
As someone who lives in Greece, 10 minutes from the beach, I actually agree with you. I never liked the Greek heat. I like the sea when there's not many people in it though.
Honestly, how it's been so far here this year, it's pretty much the perfect season. Temperature during the day between 18C and 25C. Warm in the sun, but with a cold wind. Cooler in the night, so I can sleep decently. And nice and sunny, with very long daylight. I always notice that I'm a lot happier when it's light outside, so I'm feeling a lot better in this weather. I do agree that the 30+ C days and 20+ C nights are hell, mostly because airco's aren't that common here
Wait. Winter is coming
Summer fans are not real, no way you guys enjoy a billion fuckin degree weather and sunburns that turn you to leather or the absolute swamp in your pants from being outside for more than 2 minutes.
That depends on your body though. I never get sunburns and while 30C is warm but comfortable, anything under 5C is actually painful. So I don't get winter fans either.
The thing is, in the winter you can just keep layering. But in summer, you can only remove so many layers before you have to rip your skin off to remove another one. Also I should mention that I'm in California where we get +35C summers and winter is 15C. BUT PEOPLE HERE STILL SAY SHIT LIKE "Can't wait for the warm weather! π" THE FUCK YOU MEAN "WARM" THIS SHITS ACTUAL HELL
I wouldn't call that hell either tbh but if your winter is 15C there isn't much excuse to wait for summer.
Also, stronger, blinding sunlight and more headaches.
Depends on where you are.
Iβm in the Midwestern United States now, where summer is often pretty frustrating due to the high humidity. But Iβm originally from Phoenix, where I really enjoyed summer (in the shade), because I love the feeling of warmth soaking into my bones, and I never got sweaty.
Are you by any chance related to Anakin Skywalker ?
Seriously, summer here in Comoros corresponds to the rainy season and it's indeed a bit uncomfortable to traverse. 95% humidity, upwards of 35 degrees, frequent pouring rain. I change clothes at least twice a day, and I work from home ! At least we have water and nature is happy for it : forests are lush, dense, fruity. It's winter now, muuuch more bearable.
I like it more than winter.
Go outside in 40Β°C weather for a bit, come back inside, sit in front of air conditioner, be just fine in a couple of minutes
Go outside in even 10Β°C weather for a second, come back inside, freezing to death even in front of a heater for an hour because cold or even very cool weather chills me to the bone and it takes forever for me to get warm again
Yeah, I prefer summer.
Yeah, no.
You can almost always add more layers, so unless we're talking about literally Siberia in winter, you should be fine.
But if it's too warm for shorts and shirt, there's nothing I can do. I can't run around naked or remove my skin (not in an easily reversible manner at least).
