Summer is too hot, winter is too cold, spring is full of allergines. I guess that leaves fall?

    I love fall. Part of it’s probably because I grew up in California and that’s the season we never got anything like, but it’s also just so comfortable and I love the whole aesthetic.

    Copy/paste (and a small edit) from a previous comment of mine on another community:

    Winter. By far. No bugs to fly in my face. No sweat to make me mad. No yard work. And everything seems much quieter. Oh, I can’t wait! The jackets and blankets hug me! I like to snuggle in but in the summer it’s impossible. Although, I love my veggie garden…

    They’re all so good when they’re at their best!

    Spring - New leaves and baby birds
    Summer - Big storms and lots of sun
    Fall - Sweater weather and harvest
    Winter - Quiet fluffy snow and snowmen

    All good. All valid.

    Definitely Fall for me. It’s a great time of year if you’re a gardener- finally seeing the literal fruit of your labors. The fall festivals are fun and the weather is typically perfect for a street fest. Mosquitoes die at some point so great for get togethers with a small- or large- fire. Plus I confess I am fond of winter being a birdwatcher and loving the snow when I don’t have to drive in it. So the expectation during Fall makes me pretty psyched.

    Where I am, I feel like we barely have any kind of fall season anymore. It seems to go straight from a long-ass summer to a mild winter, like Halloween is regularly in the 70s or 80s even. Fall used to be my favorite season but I think it’s probably winter now due to it being the only time of year it is actually kind of cold.

      Winter is pretty sad, now. The stores around here just stopped selling sleds because there’s never much snow, or it hits the ground and melts. So it’s just dreary cold and grey and mud for about 5 months and then finally spring shows up, but not before faking you out a couple times so you get caught in the cold without a coat at least once.

        Spring doesn’t really show up either. It’s like 30s/40s, then 80s.

        Then winter, yeah. Really bad snow when it comes then melted after two days. We didn’t even have piles in the parking lots anywhere.

          I feel like some of the “global warming is a hoax” types have started talking a little quieter since the truth has been cockslapping them in the face for what, twenty years now? It’s probably wishful thinking, but they aren’t laughing it off quite so easily now that they haven’t seen an unbroken month of snowfall in a dog’s age.

    Late fall/early winter- think October/November. If we’re lucky in Missouri, we can get a good snow in November, and the weather is perfect for blue jeans and flannels. Spring is too humid and tumultuous and summer is a smoky sauna.
