The temperature is hovering right around freezing and the air is still. Thick, fluffy flakes of snow are falling, and everything in sight is thoroughly blanketed.

Cold and rainy. I like the rain.

Another storm lover here!

I enjoyed watching the summer thunderstorms develop and approach from the 6th floor of the building I worked at this summer. I remember watching the afternoons sky progress from being filled with billowing cumulus clouds to that high-gray-overcast, kind of a filtered/milky look, that always precedes a big line of evening thunderstorms. Then you'd see the turbulent blue-black shelf-cloud slowly emerge from the darkness on the northwestern horizon. I liked watching the big wall of wind and rain just behind the shelf-cloud engulf everything as it approached. Sometimes it was so abrupt that you could see the rain enveloping buildings less than block away before a single drop had hit my window.

I guess I like variety. Though storms are the most exciting I also appreciate crisp clear fall sunshine.

I generally dislike monotonous overcast winter weather where it's just damp enough to have a constant layer of clouds blocking out the sun but at the same time there's not much real weather going on. The low sun angle and overall hum-drum feel just adds to the depressing effect. If it's going to be cloudy I prefer precipitation, a snowstorm perhaps, even driving rain.

Ooh, yeah! A good thunderstorm is an amazing thing. The deepest rumbling thunder or a sharp clap. Lightning here and there. Rain coming down in torrents. There's something immensely satisfying about simply sitting and observing a storm.

Temps in the 40s or below. I LOVE LOVE cold weather especially snow because the scenery is so pretty. I can't stand DC heat and humidity. I dread spring time too. I would move to upstate NY.

Bright, sunny and warm (not too hot).

It not only makes it better for walking around and making the most of outside, it just puts me in a good mood.

Sunny, clear, not a cloud in that blue sky, and warm (but not hot).

Nice, sunny days. And snowy days too - only if I'm on a snowboard and not driving in Tahoe. Riding in a snow flurry is relaxing...

Yup. I even got up in the middle of the night and drove into a storm to get these pictures.

Do it! It's beautiful there! It was snowing in central NY this morning - I miss it myself.
