How would you rank the seasons, in order of preference?

[mvd]

Mine:

1) fall (favorite season)
2) spring
3) winter
4) summer (least favorite season)

Though the early part of winter is up there with fall.

[LeftyFingerPop]

1. Here are the seasons where I live...

In order of preference:

1) Road construction
2) Floods
3) Clogged Gutters
4) Slush

[KitchenWitch]

2. Midwest?

[LeftyFingerPop]

4. Upstate New York. n/t

[KitchenWitch]

Ah!

:hi:

[LeftyFingerPop]

11. pre-summer has been...

pretty nice here so far.

Last June, we got absolutely killed here with what they are calling a 500 year flood. We only got 2 inches of water at our house, but I thought I would NEVER see water in my basement.

[mvd]

8. Interesting take on the 4

I'll try this for here:

1) Let down Phillies fans
2) Optimistic Phillies fans
3) Let down Eagles fans
4) Humidity

[LeftyFingerPop]

12. LOL...great city. n/t

[KitchenWitch]

16. What about the booing Santa Eagles fan season?

[mvd]

19. Booing season is all year long

LOL

[KitchenWitch]

22. Oh yeah, that's right,it's Philly, after all!

:rofl:

[mvd]

29. ...

:rofl:

I guess they can be frustrated as the longest current championship drought for a 4-team market goes on and on.

[KitchenWitch]

31. Yup

But at least Frank Rizzo is not their mayor anymore.

:rofl:

[mvd]

33. I have high hopes for Michael Nutter

I think he'll turn around the mess Street caused and be a good mayor.

[Richard Steele]

3. Summer, spring, fall, winter.

I would always rather be too hot than too cold.

[AggieGal]

5. Let's see

1/2. Spring/Fall: Both seasons last a few days combined, but they are the best days of the year!

3. Summer: It's hot, but better than being cold.

4. Winter: Too cold, but I like sweaters.

[XemaSab]

6. The 4 seasons:

Duck, landbird, mountainbird, and shorebird. :D

Shorebird season has a certain je ne sais quois. Ducks are fun, landbirds are fun, and the mountains... are far.

So fall, winter, spring, summer. :D

[KitchenWitch]

7. We do not have seasons here

1. Rain
2. Warm
3. Warmer
4. Hot

[mvd]

9. Sure, you do not have to use the normal four

:hi:

[Starbucks Anarchist]

21. Now you know how it feels!

:P

[KitchenWitch]

27. Yes, but I do not miss the sweltering humidity of Minnesota.

I miss other stuff, but not that.

[Oeditpus Rex]

10. 1. Baseball

2. Who cares?
3. Who cares?
4. Who cares?

[KitchenWitch]

14. You have a point, my friend.

[Oeditpus Rex]

26. Yup

And I painted it blue.

:dunce:

[TOhioLiberal]

13. You know...

...There's only two seasons here in Ohio: Winter and Road Construction. They both suck equally.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

15. My dear mvd!

Spring/fall....

Then summer

Then winter...

Though they all have their charms.....

:hi:

[mvd]

18. Hi, Peggy

Interesting thread so far, isn't it? With global warming, I had to put summer last. Winter seems to have more breaks in it and be shorter. Here in June, July, and August, it is rare for the temps to go below 80. Then, there's the humidity. :hi:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

24. VERY interesting thread indeed!

I wonder why the humidity is high in the country's interior.......

Out here, on the Pacific coast, it's rarely above 60%...:shrug:

I don't mind heat if its dry...

:hi:

[mvd]

28. I would love the climate out there

Especially near San Francisco. The cold and heat both bother me. Yet, it's also nice to have seasons. :hi:

[FloridaJudy]

17. We have only two seasons

1) Pleasantly cool, but not chilly: early November to mid or late May
2) Ungodly hot, humid, buggy and generally miserable: the rest of the year

It's no coincidence that Florida was sparsely populated until the invention of air-conditioning.

[Starbucks Anarchist]

20. Winter, Fall, Spring, Summer.

[begin_within]

23. Fall is the best - clear, dry, crisp, cool air, colored leaves, the hustle and bustle of summer gone

[mvd]

30. The leaves turning is a nice part of fall

The holidays are a big part for me, too.

[trackfan]

25. Fall-Winter-Spring-Summer

[Nicole]

32. Mine

Spring
Fall
Winter
Summer

[philosophie_en_rose]

34. Spring, Fall, Summer, Winter

[u4ic]

35. Autumn

spring
summer
winter

The last two are interchangeable, depending on the particular year. I don't like when either is extreme.

[Tektonik]

36. They're all the same

San Diego doesn't have seasons :P

[Bryan]

37. I live in Colorado. I can't make these simplistic distinctions.

It's been a rainy, overcast late spring so far, giving way to a blistering summer and, in all likelihood, a chill, stormy winter (childhood memories of going trick-or-treating with a rain slicker over my costume tends to skew one's expectations).

[NaturalHigh]

38. I'm almost with you on your rankings...

but I like winter better than spring.

[Maddy McCall]

39. Same as you! Fall, spring, winter, summer.

[UrbScotty]

40. Summer, spring, fall, winter (nt)

[Jamastiene]

41. Mine:

1) early spring (favorite season)
2) fall (lasts about 2 weeks here)
3) summer (that seems to be 90% of the year here)
4) winter (such a depressing time of year for some reason although I love winter foods like soup and chili)

[Heidi]

42. Summer, spring, fall, winter.

:hi: mvd!
