The sun is out.
Plants are doing their thing.
Life is abundant.
Idk who the fuck actually thinks “yes winter thank god”
No bugs.
Snow.
Sun is still out but isn't a deadly laser.
Hot cocoa by a crackling fire.
If only.
Agree with the rest
It isn't even winter yet and we've had four good snows already. We were -19c yesterday morning. I'm in southwest Ohio. Barely anyone around here really believes in global warming outside of the Earth's natural cycles, because it certainly has not gotten hotter here. Yeah I understand global data vs local data but the lived experience is we're very often below average temperature. Even summer days at the water park, sometimes it's pretty chilly to be wet in a swimsuit. We're at the same latitude as Portugal.
Yeah good for you I guess. I am 23 years old and in my lifetime we went from having at least 50cm of snow each winter to barely getting any at all and if we get it it melts due to rain next day. I mean the local lake used to freeze for people go skate. They even drove cars on it 80 years ago. It has frozen once in the last 10-15 years. I barely remember it freezing when I was little.
The heat is restrictive.
Plants are releasing allergens, requring medication and/or extensive exposure therapies.
Abundance of life can be overwhelming and invasive in the form of road traffic full of boat trailers, pickup flag caravans, and grills and smokers billowing on residential development scales.
I can regulate my temperature in the cold, where there are barely any allergens that get me and everyone's holed up inside so I can be outside and in peace more often than not.
But my ancestors were bog people. If it isn't misty or foggy in the morning I am genetically obligated to be grouchy until ingesting heated caffiene or complaining about the english.
People who live in hot places I assume
Dead silent moonlit landscapes are just incredible.
Dry is key, wet and cold winters are awful. Like -6C to -17C is perfect. -6C is practically t-shirt weather. Anything between-3C and 5C (27F-41F) is just misery.
Living somewhere that the snow stays powdery and it's -10C on average for 4 months of the winter is awesome!
Watching the sun rise every morning is nice.
