Winter is almost upon us
« on: September 01, 2010, 07:04:09 am »
Is anyone ready for winter?  If I was still in FLA I wouldn't mind it but I'm in KY and the ice and snow really s..ks. But, I can look forward to all of the housework I've put off all summer. Well, folks, be carefull out there!

Ug... in the northern midwest, the weather's so extreme - the summer is nice because it's warm, but the humidity makes it feel like it's ten degrees hotter! So if the temperature is 91, it'll be shown here as 101! As soon as you go outside, you immediately start sweating, and it makes everyone look and feel gross. But, winter has the sae amount of dampness, so the cold becomes the sort of painful, biting chill that seeps into our clothes! It's impossible to get warm unless you continually change clothes throughout the day!  :(

I really like summer.  Many people are bothered by humidity, but for some reason it doesn't seem to bother me.

The days are getting shorter and cooler.  Fall is very nice too. 

Winter is COLD.  I am grateful that I work indoors so other than the walk between my vehicle and the buildings, I don't have to be out in the cold too much.

I am definitely not ready for winter.  It gets very cold here in Illinois and we get tons of snow that seems to never let up.  I would to move to a state that has warm weather throughout the year.

Not ready for winter at all.  We get lots of snow and ice here, and the skies are grey for 5+ months.  Very depressing.

I hate winter I'm never ready.  I hate cold weather and snow and I hate it when the sun sets at 5pm.  I hate it!

I am not a fan of the winter at all, but this summer has been brutal.  The past winter was brutal also. I usually do not mind the heat and humidity that much, but it has been too much to bear.  I live in PA.  I have only had the air conditioning on hardly at all, since I have been out of work and I have to keep the bills down.  There has been so many days of 90 plus degrees, it's been hard to get a break from that weather.  Here we go again, this week we have had 4 days so far of 90 plus degrees.

I guess I am looking forward to things cooling down.

Yuck, please no.  I'm already getting down about summer quickly coming to an end.  I want to enjoy these last three weeks or so without even thinking about that dreaded six letter word coming up in December.  While I understand the necessities of winter, I don't have to like it. :P

I guess I'm the "Odd Man Out" - I like the Cold Months 8)

If you're Cold, you can put on extra layers, hat, gloves, scarf etc :P

In the Summer, who is able to stay in a cool air conditioned place all the time :dontknow:  Also, the heat & humidity makes people irritable @ times :BangHead:

My Favorite Season Is The FALL!!  :notworthy:
