I personally can't stand hot weather.
It seems most NTs like weather to be as hot as possible. I personally don't see how it can be pleasurable feeling like you're going to melt or burn up and much prefer colder weather.
I find bright sunlight painful to my eyes, and have very pale skin which burns very easily. I also feel generally devoid of energy in the summer. So winter and autumn are my favourite seasons.
I wonder if other aspies feel the same way.

For me I like this hot weather but I sweat like a dog for the first five minutes of being out there. I like everything hot. I like standing on a hot road barefoot. Also like touching everything hot as well.

If it gets any hotter around here, I'm going to start learning Icelandic.


Fair skinned and burn easily too, but I don't like the heat even if I'm in the shade.

I hate hot weather with a firey ( :D ) passion.

If anything, I prefer cooler weather. Not freezing weather, but the kind you get on cloudy autumn days with a chill in the air. Those are my favorite types of days.

I don't really like hot weather that much, especially because of humidity, but I'd rather have hot weather all the time than cold weather all the time, because I hate snow. :P Generally, warm spring-y weather is my favorite.

I dont mind, it's when it's too hot and your sitting their doing nothing and you sweat. That's what irritates me.

I don't mind dry heat, don't care if it's 90 or 100 even, but humidity kills me - even moreso being I have hyperhydrosis (can't even sleep unless the fan's on). The worse is driving somewhere when it's like 90 and I have to roll up the windows because its raining, makes me really wish my AC worked :|
