Scotland sounds pretty good to me. Not as harsh weather as where I'm from, but damn, you guys have castles and your very own monster. Not to mention cool accents.

You forgot to mention haggis.

Is that as awesome as Lutefisk?

I went to Edinburgh 11 years ago when I was 16 with my father. Don't know if it has changed much since then but it was very beautiful. There were a lot of misty hills, sheep herders, old looking buildings made from stone, and castles. I really liked it. I remember walking into a board game shop and that is when some Scottish kid about my age introduced me to the Warhammer board game.

Warm, humid, sunny - SE Asian weather.  Can't believe some of you guys actually like it grey and miserable!  Here it's cold, grey and gloomy all the time - and to top it off, the buildings are GREY!  Yay, let's add to the misery!  And make rubbish tv shows like this!

and who said that sunny mean more happy?Oh yes the media .. Just like how they said  retardly slim mean sexy.
Sun for me mean skin Cancer , déshydratation ,famine and poverty .

Tan skin ain't sexy anymore or heatly like in the 80's/90's.

To answer Op .. My favorite weather is like you.Another reason is because  i love space and everyone stay inside when it's cloudy outside so i have more place.

For some reason to clean and pragmatic gross me out.
WHen you enter the typical upper mid class appartement in a major city ..  i always feel weird and unwelcome.I'm from Canada countryside though .. I'm used to welcoming house with dust.

I love rain and fog! I was born in Seattle and moved to San Diego as a child, so maybe that's where I get it from.



I sure do miss Seattle though, such a gorgeous city.

I HATE YOU. I HATE YOU ALL, YOU COLD WEATHER LOVERS *&^&%$&$ }{|}{|}{|{" ?:>?:%$#&*&@*@(*

Another rain and fog lover, here! I also love it when the sky is completely overcast and I hate sunny weather. Waking up to an all blue sky can get me into a bad mood.



I live in Brazil, so you can guess that I'm not a happy person, weather-wise... (anyone in Seattle or in London want to adopt a 32 year-old?) XD

I live far in the North, no not Canada but close. I love the snow. The weather that is best is when the temp is just below freezing, and the snow is falling, big fluffy flakes, with little to no wind. That is glorious.

Also, when its cold outside. I am talking colder than a penguins arse, the minus temperature range cold. The sun is out, there is a sun dog visible, no wind, and ice crystals have formed in the air. Each twinkling maddeningly in the sunlight. That is absolutely beautiful.

I am 100% with you, I love snow and we are having a great year (in the Netherlands) lots of snow, each day it freezes, its beautiful..

@kimosabe0 And I thought I was the only one that actually enjoys winter. Hockey time. Woohoo... Can't have Hockey without ice. XD

You find all kinds of weird people on these forums:P
Don't like hockey though, much more a fan of speedskating, and you can't do that without ice either:P

I hate the cold weather, in the UK we are in the middle of the worst winter we have had for 30 years, as I am also around that age it is also the worst winter I have (or am rather) personally experienced, I really don't know how people could live anywhere that is colder than this and anyone that likes cold weather needs their head looking at in my opinion lol.

[Swordfishtrombone]

I don't mind cold weather (and it can get really cold in the winter here in Finland), the only thing that buggs me about winter is the short day lengths - the sun sets really early up north. And I'm in Helsinki, in Southern Finland - it gets worse the further up north you go.



Though conversely, in the summer we get really long days, and it never gets really dark.

Come on! surely your not saying sunny weather being good is media propaganda?

Skin cancer can be avoided by being sensible. Dehydration, famine and poverty are the ill effects of war and lack of technology in the countries that suffer them, the hot weather is only an issue when added to this.

I find cold easier to deal with than heat. If I'm cold, I can always put on extra layer of clothing, what do I do of it's hot? There's only so much clothes that you can shed before causing a public disturbance. And carrying an air conditioner seems impractical.

Besides, I like outdoors and in my opinion winter outdoors are more fun and less hassle. Pesky bears are hibernating, mosquitoes are gone and there are less people wandering about the place. I've camped out in 40 below weather and it's really not a problem. Certainly more pleasant than hiking in 100F weather...

As Swordfishtrombone said, the short days are a bit of a pain, but oh well, can't have everything.

Plus, aren't you guys more prepared for cold weather?  UK transport is moving at a snail's pace right now...

Yup. Every house/apartment has central heating, and the main roads are kept open even through the worst snow storms. Smaller roads may be snowed in for a short while, but it doesn't take long after a snow storm before all roads are cleared. Sidewalks may take a little longer - if there's really been lots of snow in a short time, you tend to have just paths in the snow trampled by people trouncing through it.

The airports are also well prepared - I don't think the recent snow storms have really had much effect on flights in the any of the airports here.

Though last year we had so much snow that Helsinki ALMOST ran out of room in the duping grounds, where trucks take the snow that comes off the streets. This Winter's not looking any less snowy, so we'll just have to wait and see how they do this time around.

Also, by law, all motor vehicles must have winter tires in the winter, and, as a part of getting a driver's licence in Finland, you need to complete some slippery-conditions training on a special track, where you can practice how to avoid spinning out, how to stop in slick conditions, and how to regain control if you lose it.

All these things together mean that there rarely are any serious disruptions to traffic in the winter, in Finland.

I love it when it snows, when the ground and trees are covered in white and all. Makes me feel all christmas-y.
I also like rain, but not as much as snow. Fall an winter are my favorite seasons overall, too. Although, I live in the southern Finland too, not sure how much I'd like it further north.

The worst I can imagine is sunshine at over 30 celsius, for a longer period of time. Of course, days like that can be fun too, since you can just go to swim or something such. But not when it's continuously like that for three or more weeks, like the last summer here.

I can't imagine what this would be like. Don't know if I'd love it or hate it, but the northern European countries are beautiful imo. 

Fall in Montana is ideal. Very little rain, no subzero temps like we get in the winter, and no hot weather either, rarely above 80 degrees. It's brisk, sunny, but with lots of heavy rolling clouds that never seem to settle and let loose with rain. The perfect time to be outdoors. Unfortunately, it's also very short.
