The Cold
while I don't like really hot or really cold weather... ill take the really hot over the really cold if I had to choose as you just generally feel better in warmer weather vs cold weather. that and you got A/C (air conditioner) to combat the high humidity in the summer.

Catman loves winter, though sometimes the icy roads can be a problem.

All of it! Cold, ice, snow, lousy driving conditions. Missing daylight completely--I work 12s and it's dark going into work and dark coming come.

Nothing, because at present, it's too far away to worry about. However, the coming summer on the other hand...  |

Well, winter here featured no ice, no snow, a bit of rain, some cold - possibly because I wore shorts whenever I left the house - the same driving conditions as per usual and a little less daylight.

Rubbing it in?! You aren't missing much. Some parts if the US are like that. When I was kid in the California mountains it would get rainy and a bit chilly into the winter, but not the frozen hell I currently deal with. |

Of course, when it comes to summer, it can get a tad warm here.

I find it a bit of a mixed bag. The heat removes a lot of the aches and pains that just make life more difficult, but the cooler weather is better for sleeping, as well as being better for a lot of the technology we rely on in our "modern" lives. And to think, when I met my grandmother for the first time, at 2 years-of-age, she lived in a house without electricity, ceilings or even glass in some of her windows. And as for the long-drop in her back yard...  PS - Sun tea?

ant-mac, sun tea is made by putting a few bags of tea in a glass container full of cold water and leaving it out in the sun for a few hours.

Recommended daytime temperature? 2. Recommended period of time for brewing? I already drink my tea black with one teaspoon of sugar... I like it strong.

Definitely the snow. Though last year was an easy winter where I am. But I have a feeling it is going to be bad this year

Shorter days. November is the worst month of the year & it's not close.
Snow is fine, it brightens the landscape even at night. January is fine because after the holidays it always feels like 15lbs of mental weight off my brain.

Shorter stretches of daylight. I hate darkness at 5:00. Dec. 21 is one of my favorite days, during the year. The daylight begins to increase, however slowly, after the winger solstice.
As for weather, it's not unusual for us to get a "cold snap," or two. But, they don't last for more than a few days, and we don't have snow. Otherwise, it's in the 50s/60s, in the afternoon.
