Love all four seasons (especially fall). Love snow, but really dislike sub 25 degree temps. If it could snow a lot AND do it while being 25 to 32 degrees, I'd be a really happy guy during winter.

Winter

It's been a relatively warm winter for us in the Northern Mountains of Japan, until about a week ago....
Spent most of the morning shoveling waist deep snow away from the front of the house and car.
My sister spent several years living in the mountains of Japan. She would send pictures of 10' snow drifts that made me ill to look at, and I was living in Chicago at the time.
According to your profile you live on the planet Earth...You wouldn't be holding back on that would you?
Oh crap, it's February??? I must be sneezed and missed winter entirely. F***ing Texas.

I love the cold and snow. CT surprisingly gets sub-tropical heat and humidity in the warmer months, which sucks. Wish I could live in northern Canada or Sweden or something year round. Hard to get pizza delivery up there though I imagine.

Since moving to Seattle, I have become a complete climate wimp. It's good to be able to be a climate wimp.
When it snows here, all bets are off, though. People think all wheel drive can solve icy hills. There's always a doofus in a big 4x4 who slides down a hill and takes out row after row of parked cars. Then the next doofus does the same thing. We do it all for your entertainment on YouTube. Most of those dumb driver sliding down steep hill in snow videos come from around here. We have steep hills, only occasional snow, and really awful drivers. It's a winning combination.

You are welcome. It's a big sacrifice, but we do it for the mood of the nation.
First frost of the season here in Sac. My new car has a heated steering wheel and seats I didn't think those things would matter to me.
I was wrong

We all know why you got a car with heated seats. It's so your Taco Bell food doesn't get cold sitting next to you.

HA! Nearly right! It's so the CURRY doesn't go cold
Thanks KBD, I have never head a thread resurrected!
And, to keep things official, I HATE WINTER!
Man you can always put on warmer clothing but in the hot months you can only take off so much. Gimme winter any time.
