The sun sucks, being forced to shower like every 4 hours just to not feeling sweaty, the fucking mosquitoes, the fact you can’t wear anything that you want anymore due the heat, the people outside… The fucking beach. I try to avoid it… The fucking sand, not a fan of it. Is scratchy, harsh, annoying and it infiltrates in every nook and cranny. Is not worth the annoyance just to shower yourself with salt water.
Absolutely, in Louisiana.
Also, stronger, blinding sunlight and more headaches.
Ok Anakin. But please stop taking showers, that’s not how it works. Put some deodorant on and stay in the shades or in a breeze
Best season, weather is nice enough so Ican enjoy outdoor activities.
There’s no such thing as bad weather only inappropriate gear.
The problem is, in the summer, “appropriate gear” means an air conditioned house.
Yes you can play tennis in bubble jackets rifling through snow but it’s not exactly pleasant, you can put skis on your skateboard but it ain’t the same.
In Texas we have summer heat that even an air conditioned house can’t keep up with at times. It can get hot enough that a some home AC systems will run and run and not maintain a comfortable temp.
Yeah you have to manage your expectations and also close the shades. But if you are coming in from the heat, the house will feel cool even if it’s not cold. Usually with a heat pump (and older not so insulated house) we can comfortably get up to about 20f lower than outside, set it at 78 in summer and it works ok, still seems to manage the humidity inside too.
Can confirm. Already happened yesterday. The hot temps are creeping in early this year and I’m still dealing with all the fallen trees from the storms last week. Steamy as heck outside.
From reading this thread I’m convinced that most of you actually live in hell and have some kind of way of communicating with the living. Flying cockroaches… omg
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.

I don’t mind the beach but please just give me autumn. Screw summer
Very early summer or late spring.
Just enough that you don’t need a jacket in the morning/evening but not so hot that you will spontaneously combust during lunch.I’m staunchly a fan of autumn. I prefer very early autumn, colors pop
Are you by any chance related to Anakin Skywalker ?
Seriously, summer here in Comoros corresponds to the rainy season and it’s indeed a bit uncomfortable to traverse. 95% humidity, upwards of 35 degrees, frequent pouring rain. I change clothes at least twice a day, and I work from home ! At least we have water and nature is happy for it : forests are lush, dense, fruity. It’s winter now, muuuch more bearable.
Go outside in 40°C weather for a bit, come back inside, sit in front of air conditioner, be just fine in a couple of minutes
Go outside in even 10°C weather for a second, come back inside, freezing to death even in front of a heater for an hour because cold or even very cool weather chills me to the bone and it takes forever for me to get warm again
Yeah, I prefer summer.
Yeah, no.
You can almost always add more layers, so unless we’re talking about literally Siberia in winter, you should be fine.
But if it’s too warm for shorts and shirt, there’s nothing I can do. I can’t run around naked or remove my skin (not in an easily reversible manner at least).
I like summer. I can wear shorts. They’re cool and comfy.
Are they easy to wear?
Love summer. Love all the seasons, but would be nice if summer was one, two months longer and winter shorter.
Simply move to the southeast US, summer starts at the beginning of April and ends around Halloween
Depends on where you are.
I’m in the Midwestern United States now, where summer is often pretty frustrating due to the high humidity. But I’m originally from Phoenix, where I really enjoyed summer (in the shade), because I love the feeling of warmth soaking into my bones, and I never got sweaty.
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.
