I love cold weather but without rain. So I would say that I'd rather choose hot weather than rainy days. I'll just spend summer in the beach or somewhere else to make me cold. I don't like rainy days because I am afraid of lightning and thunder. And aside from this, I hate to see several areas in our country getting flooded. Sometimes, landslide even accompanies these rains. Also, when it is raining, I don't enjoy travelling. How about you? Hot weather or cold?

I have to say that both types of days has good things, I like hot summer days because I can go to the beach and do outdoors activities, you can go out, and things like that. The rainy days are nice to be indoors sleeping thought the whole day, sometimes we need days like that, to be like a vegetable in our couch, but with a day like this, you can't go out, and if you do it is a pain walking on the street while raining, or driving like this.

I prefer sunny days! I don't like cold weather, it gets me down. Unlike hot weathers, I feel like I wanna do something new for that day, something worth while. :)

Hi, reco13. I remember how last summer was so very hot and I think for this, I will have to pass.. I would rather experience rain more than I would with the hot summer. I like to feel the raindrops over hot heat. Being very hot makes it hard for me to relax and enjoy myself. I prefer the rain over the heat. But, I don't wish to be in a flood though.

Im a fan of rainy days. Im not fond of the dryness of the earth and surroundings. When I'm bored and run out of rock music, the thunder fills that need for me. They can be as near as the roof of our house when they hit and its like the heaven is kissing us. Whatever we want God provides.

HI! I prefer the hot summer days, but i also can't say that I hate the rainy days, because when it rains i can't go out( and that's why i prefer the hot summer days) and the only thing i can do is to read my books, besides the TV and the PC, because I really love to read. And i like summer, because then I can go out with my friends, can go swim and fishin' in the nearest river, and can also read

I am not sure which I prefer. I guess I'd have to pick summer. However, there is great benefit to the rainy day. It's a perfect time to take a much needed break and curl up with a good book. I can enjoy both. But I don't want too many rainy days in a row. Then I get cabin fever.

Oh I love rain especially during the peak of summer here. It gets around 40 degree celcius here. I like to see the washed look on leaves and the clear and clean buildings and trees. I love to watch rain...I have a good view from my bedrom window and whenever it rains I make it a point to drink tea from here watching rain. But during rainy season, it is a diffrent story alltogether. We find it difficult to dry clothes, especially the thick clothes...flood doesnt happen here, but it is sad to see flooded areas. Cold is more tolerable coz if I feel cold, I put on warm clothes and I feel comfortable. But during summer, you cant take off all your clothes know..I dread summer and the sad news is that it is just a few months away...:(

I prefer wet season to summer. i like watery circumstances cos it makes me feel fresh. I can't afford to hot weather cos I usually sweat easily and it really bothers my daily activities. though I'll be wet in wet/rainy season but I'm always able to enjoy rain..

Well, it depends on what I'm going to do ;) if I would go out with friends on a road trip or go outdoors, I would prefer a summery weather, not too hot, though. These days, the summer in our country in getting hotter and hotter, my skin gets easily burned and I don't like it. But when I'm just staying at home, cuddling in my bed, watching tv or reading, I would prefer a cold weather with a little drizzle. ;)

I think the ideal is when it's raining in hot summer. You know that feeling I guess.
Rain in Summer after it was so hot for some days, it's just like the best thing which can happen for me.
Actually I don't like it when it's cold and when it seems that the snow will never go away. (like this winter...2 months just snow which never seems to melt and this cold is horrible and makes you depressing)
But then again I don't like hot summers either.
I rather prefer balanced weather...for me the best season is probably spring..the time when the snow is melting, everything is turning green and starting to bloom and when it's slowly getting warmer step by step.

Since I am a warm blooded creature, I prefer rainy days rather over hot summer. Another reason, the second most important thing I need next to air is water. We need water, to drink, and for our hygiene. During hot summers, the water reserve of our dams here drop down to the lowest level affecting our water supply. That's the bad things about hot summers here.

Hi friend sorry to say but like rainy season the most because the first reason is that in rainy season we get holidays for school and colleges. Another thing i would like to tell you that in rainy season nature becomes very beautiful like there is greenary every were and surrounding becomes very lively and seeing this our mind also refreshes. Hence i dont like hot season because it irritates me.

I love cold weather, in winter if you wanna go outside you can wear a few extra pair of clothes and go but when it gets hot you cannot take off all your clothes and walk in the streets, you will get arrested for sure. I hate the rain but not more than the hot weather. So I will prefer the rain to the hot weather.

Being in hot asia makes me choose rainy days rather than summer weather.Rainy days makes me feel cool, relaxed and calm while hot summer weather makes me feel irritated and uncomfortable.Rainy weather makes me feel like staying at home and just chill, watch some movie or listening to music or anything that is an indoor activity. Though when I am caught outside when the rain pours, I also could enjoy it by walking aimlessly under the rain. It's a joy for me to do that from time to time.
