I absolutely loathe it! I love the night, but for most of the time in the summer the night only lasts about four hours! 20 hours of bright nightmares!

(Although, I can possibly understand why children etc. like it... I'm much more broken than that at this point, though.)

Depending on how hot it is, but the problem here is that it goes from a bit cold to super hot, so i don't know but this summer hasn't been very good so far :/ It was better last year :)

I hate summer because I can't stand the three digit degree weather and the amount of energy the ac consumes. Yet it's impossible to live without it. Turn it off for fifteen minutes and the temperature goes up from 80 to 95 or sometimes even higher. I also hate the summer solstice and the days leading up to it. I really hate long days. Although here we don't get 20 hours of sunlight.

for me it's a love/hate thing. i definitely hate cold weather but don't care for it being too hot either. wish i could find a place that would stay about 70-75 all year around (not going to happen though)

Only thing I like about Summer is if we get a good thunderstorm and those have been rare lately.

I like summer when it's not more than 25°c and when the wind isn't blowing strong. I also like the summer to stay thunderstorm free.

I love it. It's in the low hundreds with high humidity. I just feels right. I hate winter.

There are good parts about summer and winter. In summer, it's more comfortable outside, and there's sunshine and everything looks better. However, there are also wasps, and the heat sometimes means I can't sleep for three nights on end because I keep sweating and sticking to the bed. Winter is fun if there's snow and I don't have to drive a car, but the temperatures and humidity in winter mean there's usually rain and everything is dark and uninviting.

There are some years that I love the summer and other years that I want summer to be over with. There are many factors that come into my preference. This has been a good summer for me because the Olympics are on, and not many of the younger people around my area have given me nay trouble so far this summer. I hated last summer because I was always collecting cans and bottles and I didn't know of a easier way to make free money until this summer.

Just as long as the weather stays cool here, I am fine with it. When I say cool, I mean when it's in the 70's and low 80's. 90's is considered a heat wave here and that is when I start to use AC to cool the place down for at night while it's nice and cool outside but inside it's roasting.

I like it, mostly because I get to spend more time outside and everything in nature is so alive, colorful and beautiful. I like green. :)
Also, I don't like wearing many layers of clothes.

In the past, I kinda hated summer because I had to go to this daycamp during the summer which was a living hell when I was in elementary school. Now, I'm starting to like summer because I don't have to go to school and I can stay home. The weather is okay but I hate heatwaves and bugs. I also don't like that the sun comes out so early.

I used to really love summer when I was younger, but not so much any more. The heat annoys me because I can't go outside to run with my music on - at least not for very long. I also hate how the park always has people in it, and nine times out of ten they use my favorite side of the park. The only thing I like about summer is that I can go swimming because it's hot, and swimming is one of my favorite activities.

I like the cooler months of the year because I enjoy dressing in layered clothing and hardly anyone uses the park. Also, I can tolerate running in the cold more than the heat. The only bad thing about cool weather is that I can't go swimming.

I like weather hot enough to be able to go with no shirt where appropriate (I'm a showoff :roll: ). When it's hot, I can get away with doing that without being as obvious, as plenty of other men are shirtless in hot weather.

I like warm sunny days, but hate humidity. I love thunderstorms.
