What is your favourite type of weather?

I like it sunny and warm. My least favourite is rainy and cold. I actually have sensory issues with rain. I don't like the feel of it on my skin. I also don't like the smell of it, most people like that smell.

The best climate I've ever experienced was in Reno, Nevada. It got up to 110 Fahrenheit during the day and 40 at night, which sounds totally awful, but neither of them felt uncomfortable because the desert is so dry. 80 with humidity feels much hotter than 100 without it, and 40 without humidity feels like a light breeze.

Unfortunately, I don't live there anymore. I live in the middle of the country where it's always humid, which means it feels like the inside of an oven if it gets up to 90 and like the inside of a freezer if it drops below 40. So right now my favorite weather is cloudy and overcast, so that it's not too hot and not too cold. Just... mild.

I like cool weather (fall/spring in the Mid-Atlantic US).

Partly because I like to wear a light jacket (partly sensory issues), but also I just generally find it much more irritating to be hot and sweaty than even freezing cold.

Ideally it should be either cloudy (the sun sometimes bothers me) in maybe the 60s(fahrenheit) with mild wind or in the 50s with wind and strong sun. I used to like to just sit outside under the latter set of conditions, being chilled by the wind and warmed by the sun in turn :D.

Humidity is evil.

Cold and raining :)

I don't exactly know why, but the atmosphere of it with the dark clouds seems so nice >_>

Also, I've lived in hot dry climates all my life, and hate heated weather with passion... I prefer the cold even to warm and sunny >_>

I like warm and sunny weather. It helps me to feel more cheerful and energized. I tend to feel more moody and agitated if it rains for too many days in a row. I would hate living in Washington, the UK or anywhere else where it rains more than it shines.

I like it when it's warm and sunny. There's a song about that. My favourite group recorded it in 1966. 8)

I like cold & rainy. Mainly because it is easier to warm up, than it is to cool down & I like the rain dripping on me & listening to it.

I love it cold and rainy as well. I somewhat like the feeling of being caught in a downpour without an umbrella actually. No idea why however.

A summer of partly cloudy skies and temperatures in the 60s, and a winter of sunshine and showers with temperatures in the 40s
Just fix the daylight hours please.

It happens, as the documentary film Jumanji proved.

I like sunny and mildly warm spring or autumn weather with a light breeze. 15-16° C / 60 F is the optimal outdoor temperature, imho. Any warmer than that and I risk working up a sweat when I take a bicycle ride or a long, fast walk. Besides, I like wearing a jacket when I'm out and about. Without a jacket I don't know where to keep all my stuff.

My least favorite weather is scorching hot and mercilessly sunny. I can always put additional clothes on in the winter, but there is only so much that I can take off in public. To make things worse, I can barely keep my eyes open when the sun is too glaring.
