Fall, at least in NY. In AZ, winter. Fall in the northeast is the best.

Yeah but to get rid of the sweat, you can take a warm shower.

In the process of moving to a new state. No snow, ice or road salt! So I'm going to have to rethink my seasons.
Picked "I don't go outside" because being from Chicago I haven't been outside for 6 months!

It used to be summer, because I love that heat, but could do without the horrific humidity here in Kansas (and our state bird, the mosquito). Now it's fall. It's still fairly warm (warmer than spring, when we keep dropping back into winter temps) and then there's all the pretty colors as the trees change. You know, when they do actually change when the weather was normal. Last few years have literally gone from green to brown in less than a day....

Spring for me - warm enough for skirts, shorts and tees, and usually before bugs make their presence. :)

I hate the sun, as I find it to be quite annoying I guess. Spring and Summer...I hate both with a passion honestly as I can't wear my favorite clothing, and unfortunately this is when people start to emerge from their homes with their obnoxiously loud children. The heat, the bugs, the people...it all just puts me in a bad mood I guess.

I sound like quite the lovely person to be around lol. Seriously though, I do not HATE people by any means even if it sounds like I do.

The only time I enjoy being around an abundance of human beings is on Halloween due to the interesting costumes and such.

Anyways, my favorite season is winter because fall is NEVER cold in California, but if it was then fall would be my choice.

I like the cold. Snow is OK while it's falling, and before it gets plowed or shoveled. It's pretty. Once that smooth surface is disturbed, it's just an ugly nuisance, especially when it gets dirty.

For the record, I'm a Spring girl. I used to love Autumn. But that ultra-vivid green of a sunlit field fresh with new growth from a rainshower swung it for me a few years back.

Summer. The only time I'm not constantly cold and freezing, up here in the north. I start freezing at around +10 celcius degrees (50 fahrenhet) so all other seasons I freeze. The thickest winter jackets are barely enough to keep me warm during spring/fall. During winter I'm just out of options.

About summer I also like the brightness, being able to swim outdoors in lakes and ocean, not slipping on ice or wet leaves, etc. And I can wear the clothes/outfits I actually want to wear, instead of just hiding in a tent of thick wool and layers. Spring is sometimes an okay season too though, but only it's like summer.

You should move to AZ for the weather. You'd love it.

Summer sucks around here because it's heaving with tourists. Winter is empty and we have gale storms that usually last from three days to a week all the way through and wreck the roofs and the roads. Spring (round about this time) is the best time to get out and enjoy stuff, and in summer at 5 am before anyone is awake.

Is that short for Arizona? I'm never quite sure of abbreviations.
I don't know about moving abroad though, I kinda like the free health care system here in Sweden cause I utilise that a lot, even though the climate here absolutely sucks...  ;)

Yes, Arizona and nothing is free. Someone always pays for things. That said, the only Time it gets below 50 is in the winter and that's the low, it warms up to 60-70 for highs. Very dry too. In the summer, I've seen 123, but 100-110 is normal. Humidity can be as low as 1-2% and under 10% is normal prior to and after the "monsoon" season where we get a lot of our rainfall. We're under 10" a year. During the monsoon, the humidity climbs to 30% and temps drop a little bit. I don't care for the heat and I've been here 6 years. Just haven't acclimated. I'm from Long Island where the weather is quite different.

Like Megan, my preference has changed from autumn to spring. I still love autumn (my birthday, the evenings drawing in, Halloween, Bonfire night, fog, the first smell of real fires, looking forward to Christmas, etc.) but now I so appreciate the first warm sunny days after winter!

That does sound like perfect weather for me. If only it was possible to bring Sweden with me to a warmer climate. I often joke about that with my mother, who also hates the cold. During winters here it can get as cold as down to -40 F but more commonly around 5 F that time of the year. That's too cold for me to go outdoors at all no matter what I wear, unless I absolutely have to, and I'm not a fan of snow either. I usually call it mold. In summers it can get as warm as up to around 105 F but usually it's around 70 F. So it's quite extreme differences between the seasons, but I don't like that. I'd prefer a more even climate.

Winter. My body has a low tolerance for even the slightest bit of heat and sunshine. Where I live the weather has gotten really wonky and typically winter sees the nicest temperatures (temperatures in the 50s) with every other season just being too hot. We had some nice days this April, actually, but everyone whined about it being too 'cold', while now being happy that it is hot. I do not belong this far South.  :icon_no:

I could have voted for the last option, too. I don't like going outside. It is just so rare that the weather is nice.

I prefer Summer, since I'm usually cold.  IIRC, my natural body temp is 97.6F, which is a degree colder than most humans.  (Maybe I'm not human!  8) MIB, come and fite me!) 

So, when it gets hot outside, I open the windows and the sliding glass door and enjoy the heat!  Unfortunately, my SO loves it cool and has asthma, so I turn on the A/C an hour before he arrives home from work. 

I usually have a cold all summer.  :(
