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 10-30°C out. Colder and hotter are okay, too, but not as nice.

I live in Florida, so it's hot but I LOVE our summers. We get warm mornings, afternoon thunderstorms, and warm evenings with lightning all through the sky, it is so beautiful. I like also how nobody at the beach is modest or worried about looks (I'm not in Miami) so you see all types in swimsuits.

So summer is my favorite mostly because of the rain, but I do like the beach.

ETA I also like the longer days and shorter nights.

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

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.

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

Absolutely, in Louisiana.

Clearly whoever wrote this has not seen an oregon coast summer. But don't move here... It's terrible... I promise...

I'm more bothered by the flying cockroaches. They are more active when its hot it seems. Spring and Autumn are best I feel.

Absolutely. By body runs hot, and Autumn is my favorite. All the gray of winter exacerbates my depression, and snow is a pita. In Autumn all the goddamn bugs die and the inevitably swampy Chicago humidity is a non-factor.

Summer = wildfire season.

I'm Canadian in a place with a decent amount of snow and it's cold for like six months of the year. I love summer.

I do live near a popular cottage area so the downside to summer is all the asshole cottagers who tailgate aggressively if you aren't driving 30km/hr or more over the speed limit.

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?

Completely agree. I hate heat with a passion. My 2 biggest annoyances are lawn mowers being loud and neighbors outside all day with kids that scream their fucking lungs out. Just high pitched fucking screaming for hours on end.

I know i used to play outside when i was little, but never did i yell and scream uncontrollably for fucking hours, driving anyone in a 200 meter radius fucking insane. Sorry i just don't get it.

Edit: im sorry if i sound like a boomer. Im autistic and the screaming is giving me a fight of flight reaction. Often i don't care. But a family 2 houses down screams sooooo loud. Not even laughing or anything. Just pure high pitched screaming. And they will go on until 10pm or so every day if the sun shines.

I use noise canceling earphones but i can't and don't want to wear those all day long.

I live in a cruise ship town, that's why summer is my least favorite

I don't mind the beach but please just give me autumn. Screw summer

I wonder what life was like before the summer sun actively tries to kill us.

I like it more than winter.

Spring where I live is worst.

Lots of snow, lots of rain so that means a lot of slush, and any outdoor activity makes a mess of whatever you are wearing.

With the climate changes, we also get wild spikes of hot/cold weather. So one day you are in t-shirt and the next day you have a to wear a snow suit.

I just stay inside with the nice AC lol

Spring is the worst. The weather is all over the place! One day you wear winter outfit and next day it’s tshirt and shorts but have an umbrella ready. Or a helmet for when it hails tennis balls.

My wife could’ve written this

Also, stronger, blinding sunlight and more headaches.
