Here in Deadmonton, Alberta, it's really hot in the summer and really cold in the winter, and absolutely average in the pring and fall. :)

Hot and dry in the summer, cold in the winter. Pleasant in the spring and fall. However, I am almost in the middle of Tornado Alley.

Nattefrost will tell yah all about where i live,

Banners of War.
Banners of the Apocalypse.
Hatred towards mankind and life itself.
Violence is fashion

The graveyard soil is changing to stone,
so many of its deaths had been midvinter.
The blinding snowdrifts.
The subzero temperature.

God-awful ridiculous. Any other Ohioans here will agree with me.

It was just off this year. Normally, the summer's not too bad; the winter is bitter cold, but I rather like snow days.

Hot and humid with rain showers and thunderstorms in the summer, (and the ever present threat of tornadoes and hurricanes from May until November.) Cool and pleasant in the "winter", sometimes temps go down to 40 in January.

I live in the California desert.

I love its savage beauty and its unapollogetic magnetism.

Basically, it's warm/hot and dry and sunny every single day. It rains maybe two or three days a year. The mountains, palm trees and mulicolor flowers are awesome here; it's like living in a botanical garden, and the sunrises and sunsets are so spectacular, they seem technicolor fake, like someone photoshoped and digitally remastered everthing and presented it to you through rose colored glasses :P

There is not a SINGLE day when I don't feel grateful for living in this Paradise...

It rains 320 days of the year here. Sometimes on rare occasions we get snow. We might (if we're lucky) have about 20-40 days of sunshine.

Summers are perfect, but short and sweet. Just the right amount of warmth and generally low humidity. Of course summer is only July through about mid-September (June is still very springish). We get big gales and rains around November and December. The rest of the time it's really boring and dreary with a little drizzle each day. Except once in a while it snows an inch or two and it's really fun because there's no such thing as road salt in Seattle. Of course no one knows how to drive in the snow either.

Very unpredictable. I can remember at least one snow storm for every month. Usually hot dry summer. Some times cloud bursts occur flooding everything. Winters can be mild, and rainy one year, or blizzards the next. Many times we get them both in one winter.

In CNY this summer it has been mild, kinda rainy, and average temp was 80 or so, slightly cooler then average for summer.

Last fall it was rainy and warm

last winter it was warm and wet, we did not get a ton of snow compaired to other years

last spring it was wet and cool.

I live right on lake ontario so we get lake effect as its called, bands of snow during the winter and its always cooler here then it is 20 miles away from the lake anywhere else. We hardly had any thunderstorms this year and that sucks.

Way too hot here these days. I like the mid 80's winters where temperatures sometimes reached -40'C. These days you're lucky if it even reaches -20, and the summers can get as hot as 30'. Winter as defined by there being snow on the ground used to last half a year when I grew up, while it lasts 4-5 months now. This last winter had snow only for 2.5 months. Climate changes affect arctic and sub-arctic areas more than others.
