Are you a warm weather or a cool, cold weather person? I don't even have to think about that one. Defitnely, cool or cold to me. I don't like temperature extremes..but unless it is extremely frigid outside I will pick cold. I know one time I was in Western Indiana in the Winter..and it was excruciatingly cold. Even growing up where I did along the Great Lakes..it could be fairly brutal in the Winter..but I never felt biting cold like I did then. I imagine it is even worse..in North Dakota, Canada.or areas where nothing much breaks the winds. However, by and large, it is much better than heat..I hate hot, humid weather that zaps your strength, with it's potential for heat rash, bugs and all manner of nasty critters around.

Depends on how cold. I couldn't survive constant freezing temps and snow.

It is all relative..but I am much more of a cold weather fan. Of course last year, my hands were cold all winter.

I'm a moderate type person and like it warm or cool. I'm not fond of extremes when it's too cold/frigid or too hot/humid. I do find I have more energy in the cooler months even though my house is a decent temperature with the a/c

@Marilynda1225 I went to Cancun once..and it was about 100 degrees with probably 95 percent humidity. As much as I wanted to wander around and explore..I just sat on a rock in the shade..not a hot weather gal!

I appreciate living in temperate climate. Therefore I can have interesting times in all four seasons. I love spring and summer most of all. This is due to light and warmer weather. Snow looks pretty and I have happy memories of it in the past. It rarely snows in the south west of the UK. I hate very cold weather when I feel freezing and miserable with it. I love to visit tropical destinations and I like their weather.

@snowy22315 I'll take hot and humid over cold and snow any day. I despise the cold.

Right once you are too hot..not too much you can do especially if you are in a public place.

I love Fall and when we have a real spring I enjoy that but it has been years since we had anything resembling the spring I remember.

I grew up in Minneapolis, Minnesota so I grew to hate winter because it was so so long and kept waiting for summer. Now, I live in Jerusalem and we have winter here but it leaves and spring and summer come. This year we had such weird weather that I thought spring and summer would never come. We skipped spring and went into summer. I am a spring and summer person.

Interesting to go from Minneapolis to Jerusalem. That must have been a big culture shock! Do you feel safe in Jerusalem? I used to be a summer person when I was a kid.

I started my life all over again at 36. It was a culture shock going from living with some of my people to living with a lot of my people from so many different cultures. I feel safer here than I did there. I still love the summer. Israel is a very beautiful country and so much to see. I you ever get a chance come here and see it for yourself.

Temperature extremes are not nice..but I don't like a hot sticky feeling. I can usually deal with the cold if it isn't bone chilling.

I prefer the warmth. If its hot, its easy to turn on a fan and slip into cooler clothes. Can get comfortable easy.
When its ice cold even with a heater and layers of blankets it was impossible to get warm! I hated the negative weather up in Ohio!

I think my temperature ideal is about 75-80 with low humidity.

I am grateful for almost any kind of weather anyway. Like if it rains, I'll remind myself that some people in other parts of the world do not get rain often. And if it's too warm, that some don't get too much heat.
