Yes and no. I would like to be outside a little more so the cooler temperatures are appreciated. But I’m not ready for summer vacation to be over. Or sandal and no-coat-needed season. I do like when we have less tourists too. I appreciate how they stimulate the local economy. I do not appreciate the crowds and traffic. Occasionally the behavior of people livin it up is a problem too. Sometimes I think we should have our school breaks when the weather is actually nice in the spring or fall instead of when we are hiding from the heat anyway.

I sure am. After our long heatwave it was 56 this morning when I woke and only reached 67 today and will be 52 overnight. I was able to open windows and enjoy the cool air and do some outside work that it had been too hot to do. If it stayed like this thru fall I would be perfectly happy

No, because spring precedes summer! Autumn and winter are my favourite seasons. It's ominously springlike here already - temperatures up to 20C next week. We've had an intense winter, coldest I remember. I just hope we don't have the same with summer, that's more dangerous here. Also I want to go on wearing my knitwear for a while yet! 🧶

While Winter is my favorite season (Yes, I'm an alien, LOL), I love autumn's lack of bugs. Specifically, wasps, when the weather gets cooler. Otherwise, I despise this time of year due to the bugs. It **IS** pretty tho :)

Another unusual August morning temperature wise as it's just 43F. With weather guessers saying today's high of only 68F. I prefer it a bit warmer in the morning as I'm working rebuilding a neighbors garden.

I have always disliked hot humid weather and have never tolerated it well, so I always look forward to autumn. Autumn is my favorite season because of the temperatures and the colors. Unless we have a long brutal cold spell in winter I do much better with winter than summer.

I love heat over cold, but this summer has been ridiculous. I don’t like the chill, but do like fallish clothing. Sweaters and boots.
