Poll question: What's your favorite kind of climate?
I like a 4-season climate the most.

1. Maine, of course. Though I could do a slightly milder
climate with less extremity in at both the hot n cold ends. :)

16. Maine is my favorite too!
I think some places in the Midwest have more extreme temperatures, like Minnesota.

3. The notion that Seattle is "wet" is a misnomer
Yes, we get a lot of rain, but so do a lot of places. Consider Houston, which exceeds Seattle in annual rain fall, but is also hot and humid. Few places are as beautiful as Seattle, which has a moderate climate and four different seasons.

I would call this Coastal, which includes all four seasons with tempered climate variations.

Just a biased opinion for you. :)

6. That poll choice was specifically for..
those who like a lot of rain. So it's just one of many I could have picked.

4. Hot and humid only if I'm on a coast
Otherwise mild year round would be my preference

5. Two words. San Diego!
Four seasonal people are either lying or in denial.
You know it!

7. I like the changes
Really do. Though I could live with a Southern U.S. climate.

8. Ok. Just like my Mom does.
But calls me and complains about the rain, snow, humidity, raking leaves, shoveling snow...

12. I had the *exact* same thought - two words, San Diego!
I love San Diego. Wish real estate wasn't so damn expensive there!

10. As I get older and creakier-- the more I realize--hot is good.
Hot and dry is *better*. Damp is getting to be not so good. I've been in Las Vegas and Reggio Calabria, Italy (which is a lovely place--cactus pears grow wild, the beach is unkempt, but gorgeous)--this is weather I can *take* Damp and raining and cold and freezing rain and shovelling--feh! And damp is *difficult* on my wavy hair.

13. Seasonal...
I like all 4 seasons equally. Plus when I begin to tire of one season, the next one is right around the corner

14. I voted Mild like San Francisco but they miss out on Fall
which sucks. Fall is a beautiful time of year.

15. I like mine of the "Day After Tomorrow" variety
fierce and wildly unpredictable. Keeps one on one's toes.

18. Buffalo, NY has four seasons too.
I'm not sure why it's listed seperately.

20. Some people like the snow
That's why I put it under cold and/or lots of snow.
