What are these "seasons" you all speak of?



If I want Winter, I'll drive for an hour up to the mountains. If I want a super-hot Summer, I'll drive for an hour to the desert. A mild Springsummerfall that mostly stays between 80 and 50 degrees F year-round suits me just fine.
 
I have lived in Florida my whole life so the concept of "winter" is rather foreign to me. I own precisely one cold-weather jacket and I wear it maybe once every three years.

I like where I live, as it is sunny year round, lots of great places to go and enjoy cool water during the summer, and I don't have to shovel snow. The only thing I wish I could enjoy would be the leaves changing color.
 
Living in California, the four seasons don't exist anymore. I like the warm tropical, but we really need the rain.
 
Id would love to live in Hawaii but i can't afford to live there its so expensive. I live in central florida. It gets a little cold in january-Feb but no snow.Thank god. In Hawaii it never gets cold there EVER!

Some of my favourite weather is sun, blue skies and the temperature just above freezing. I wrap up warm (that's where all the knitting comes in handy) and enjoy the nip in the air and the crystal-clear winter light. As for heat, I struggle with anything over 25C and can't sit directly in the summer sun, hence why the British climate suits me and why you'll only find me on a beach in cooler weather.
 
The only other place I have been that I felt like "Hey! I could live here year-round" was the Bay Area, CA. Loved it.
 
^ I spent 30 years in Missouri, lived in the Chicago area several years, 2 years near San Francisco, and the last 2 decades in Phoenix. I liked San Francisco weather best.
 
I would like to live somewhere coastal, where it is hot and sunny every day, except for one month a year when it snows every day, and mountains erupt out of nowhere. And at the end of the month, the snow and mountains just disappear and it is back to hot and sunny the next day.
 
Hot and sunny one day and snow the next is known as "Tuesday" in Toronto. The change in weather and temperature that can happen from one day to the next in that part of the world has to be seen to be believed.

Well, it doesn't snow right here, but Mt. Baldy in the background there is only 48 miles away from the beach. A common phrase around here is that you can use a skateboard, snowboard, and surfboard all in the same day.

I obviously like the pleasant warmth of spring and autumn, and sometimes ever the heat of summer, but it's really hard for me to imagine living without the chill of winter. (Which might not be chilly at all, comparing with, say, Canada or Northern Europe. But around here it could stays below freezing for some time, so I guess it qualifies.)

I'm fine with hot and I'm fine with cold, I just wish my city wasn't the capital of Dampfield.
