    If it gets below 65 I'm shivering.

    I love the heat and I really don't mind being active in it. Summers are never hot enough for me up here.

    I'm more west and more rainy than Seattle, but I do MUCH better in 90+ degree weather than I do in 50 degrees. Give me hot, dry weather, especially for working out!!

    I grew up in the rain, and I'm so happy on those gray misty days! I like sun, too, but more than 3 days in a row of sun and I get agitated.

    How funny! Me too. I start complaining when we have a straight week of sun. And I grew up in NY, where the summers are hot and humid. Pacific NW weather and I are positively MADE for each other. I love the weather here.

    I'd like to get into that bouquet, too.
    Can't stand the heat (and the humidity! Blech!)
    I'd prefer sunny and 60's to 70's myself.

    I like it cool and sunny. If it's hot, that means humidity and I start melting.

    My brain said either, but my lungs voted sunny and hot. This winter I managed to experience an asthma attack caused by sucking in cold air. Not to be repeated, so now I'm waiting for warm weather to get back on my bike.
