My favourite season has gotta be spring, here's why :

For me in the UK, when spring hits its basically a diet coke version of summer, sure there's some rain but boy when it's sunny, then its a great feeling because you're not too hot and bothered.

Same things for sleeping at night, oh and it's not so cold that you can comfortably wear almost anything without being absolutely cooked like an egg!

What about you?

Summer.

I grew up in a desert and LOVE the heat. Doesn't matter if it's humid or dry, so long as it's hot I'm happy. And I HATE the cold. If I have to wear long pants and/or long sleeves to stay warm, it's too cold out.

Sweden: Late Spring/Early Summer/Early Autumn, approximately May, June and September.

Temperatures between 15-25 Β°C, low humidity and lots of hours of daylight (18 hours in early June). Great conditions for biking and just all-round pleasant to be in.

Early Spring is too wet, Late Summer is too hot and humid, and Late Autumn is too wet and dark. Winter sucks, unless it's an unusually cold year and we get consistent snow coverage. Wet and extremely dark.

The spring-winter is also a very beautiful season

Autumn. The monsoon shifts so it's starting to get dry and the heat is dying out.

Spring is too wet, summer is too hot, winter is too dry.

I'd say probably autumn, or maybe spring. Summer is too hot and winter is too cold, though it is fun going inside to a nice heated home during winter and going inside to a nice cooled home during summer, I hate that I got sick this winter with bronchitis and I'm still getting over it even though I haven't been sick for multiple years until now. Autumn just looks really nice, but leaves can be slippery when walking outside so you gotta be a bit careful too.

Over here rainy season is called Kashikazi and it has to be my favourite : long, rainy days, lush nature, vibrant greens, warm ocean. Kusi is the dry, "cold" winter we are about to enter... any day now.

Gotta say spring, summer has been getting a little too hot and most of my life I’ve not had AC. I’ve got bad memories trying to sleep with the heat in an β€œattic”-style bedroom.

Salt. Really brings a dish together

Summer because I love the long, warm days with cool nights. I'm also a heat lover.

Summer I like burning it relaxes me

[–] [email protected] 2 points 19 hours ago

Autumn, I realized all the good things are in autumn - my birthday, september fairs, things calm down after crazy summer, halloween, and providing autumn ends officially at 22nd december - waiting for christmas, the atmosphere, christmas parties in december

Strawberry season

Summer. Scorching hot is my happy place.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Autumn. You get the temperature benefits of Spring, without the bugs all waking up. Plus there are the pumpkins and holidays. And conkers!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 20 hours ago

You've sold me on Autumn. I was going to go for Spring.

Winter is next (cosy days indoors, potentially snow, and when it is sunny it's lovely because it's still cold)

Summer bottom of the heap. Can't be doing with the heat.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 20 hours ago

Autumn is my favourite because you can be cosy for the first time in months, with jumpers and soups.

Not to be mistaken for 'Fall', as Fall is a period of time within Autumn, and not a season.

House of cards season 1 was..

Oh

I really like this question.

Im loving waking up to these frosty mornings and light blue skies, I love the run right through to June.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 21 hours ago

I prefer fall, spring is pollen/allergy season...

[–] [email protected] 1 points 22 hours ago

lack of sun in winter means its right out. its always nice to not be bundled up but height of summer can be oppressive which is like mid to late. Thing with spring and some degree fall is it can be wet and colder than you want for rain. I don't know if I have one favorite season but I think I have the most days I enjoy being outdoors in the summer with it usually tending to be earlier summer and then spring and then fall with winter being the bottom of the tier. Even if the sun were out in winter I think it would be bottom. Its nice having a few snowy days to enjoy if its not bitterly cold but it loses its charm pretty fast.

Summer. The best activities: dining on patios and drinking in beer gardens, camping and hiking, going for long walks, and lots more. Long days. Heat doesn't bother me, and if it ever does I have A/C.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 hours ago* (last edited 5 hours ago)

I like summer because I hate the cold so much. Idk how people prefer it. I have to wear extra clothes everywhere. If I need to work outside my hands hurt from hitting anything even lightly. Dry skin all the time. Need to warm up my car every morning. The list goes on.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 20 hours ago

Same. I like outdoor heat quite a bit as well so summer is the time of year where there’s no physical pain and lots of opportunity for leisurely exercise.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 22 hours ago

I'm originally from the UK but moved to Canada when little.

Fall is my favorite season. I LOVE cold, dark, rainy days. My entire body just feels relaxed.

Summers here are getting hotter and hotter, with long stretches of 30c where you can't do anything.

Winters here are either painfully freezing with face-cracking winds or giant dumpings of snow that make getting around impossible

Fall is a nice blend of cooler temps, a little rain, a little darkness, a fresh start with kids gone back to school, just generally pleasant as long as you don't have to clean up too many fallen leaves :)

[–] [email protected] 3 points 22 hours ago

I think I also like spring more, always feeling like a new beginning. Unfortunately, where I live, you don't really notice seasons (big city). I'm trying to enjoy every season though

[–] [email protected] 4 points 22 hours ago

Spring. No more shoveling snow, and before summer makes it too hot. And it doesn't come with the sideways rain if autumn.
