i hate cold weather. That is why i moved to florida. Car polish (zaino) takes ages to dry on cold weather. Hate it so much you cant wash car! If you get snow its even worse. You cant get to drive fast, you cant get to wash your car, and you get salt alll over! BAD for cars.

i love cold weather. i was born in a city close to the andes. but i can't complain with california's climate hehe

SFDMALEX 12-13-2004 12:05 AM

Well I hate it in Canada for a few reasons. The huge ammounts of salt they put everywere the moment the first 2cm of snow fall. I hate this bloody salt. Its nasty. It kills your shoes, it kills your car, and it looks ugly.

Another thing is that Im in a city and to go skiing or whatever I have to plan an entire trip and go hell knows were....and I dont have time for any winter fun so I hate winter!

I like summer. I love going to the beach, I love going to a pool to check out and pick up some sexy ladies...its a good work out, and there is nothing better then having a nice cold beer sitting on a huge shore rock and starring at the lake with the wind in your hair............oh man I miss summer.

Winter is awsome when your prepaired for it. You get to to fun stuck like in the Mischief videos and such. You can't get that kinda of fun during any other time of the year. You can drive like a mad man becuase there is no one on the street to hit, becuase they are all scared.

jakaracman 12-13-2004 04:21 AM

Love winter: snow on roads, skiing, what eles do you need?

What are winters like in Switzerland? I always thought of the country as the land of snowy mountains and winter.

Well, Despite a big part of my country is located in the Alps, there are indeed various places where snow is pretty rare :D Lausanne itself is not really in the mountains and we see snow just twice a year maybe.. not more... but well, a 10 minutes drive takes me up at 800-900 meters above the sea, where a couple of weeks ago I saw my first snow

But yes, if you don't go closer or deep into the Alps, snow is like everywhere else in central Europe :D not so common

dingo 12-13-2004 06:29 AM

What winter.....its summer here, and today is 33C and tomorrow will be 39C. :shock: I wouldn't mind some snow right about now though, its too bloody hot.....and I want to go snowboarding again. :(

stmoritzer 12-13-2004 06:35 AM

I love winter ! and skiing :D

@mrmojo77: Baden is in the lower regions of Switerland, and they also have snow, maybe twice a year for a couple of days...
There is of course more snow in the mountain regions, the Alps. Many mountains are covered with snow the whole year (alt.400m +)... also glaciers (melting like hell in the past few years) :(

here are some samples from the Engadin, a valley in the south of Switzerland

im not big fan of winter, i prefer sun and water, girls=bikini

Nemisis8u 12-13-2004 05:17 PM

I dont have winter in general. What I do hate is when its freezing cold and there is no snow.

SilviaS15Cwest 12-14-2004 01:09 AM

I hate winter. My car gets parked. It snowed about 2 weeks ago and the roads are still wet. IT WONT GO AWAY!

a quick update - well we just had a max of 41.5C (107 Fahrenheit) today, so winter is obviously the furthest thing from my mind. :(

MidEngine4Life 11-12-2007 05:06 AM

I lover winter and I love snow, but it doesnt do much of anything here

F3ckB9LL 11-12-2007 07:00 AM

Z3uS 11-12-2007 08:56 AM

I love brazillian winter :mrgreen:

Our winter is the summer of most of you, however, our summer is hell if you are not at a beach or something to enjoy the sea, the chicks.

Ford Capri 2.8i 11-12-2007 09:13 AM

I love the winter as well, specially because the daylight is shorter

And exactly how is that an advantage? :?

I admit, the fresh air on a clear winter morning or a beautiful snowy landscape can be nice... but only for a couple of days :lol:
Other than that, winter sucks.

And welcome to JW! Ehh I mean MW!

Svensson 11-12-2007 10:33 AM

If I wouldn't have had this terrible hayfever, than I'd vote for spring too.

nthfinity 11-12-2007 11:47 AM

3 years later...
 
I think this may be a new forum record ;) . I don't want to see bringing up long dead topics made a habit of.

Remember, Winter in the northern hemisphere doesn't start for more then a month and a 1/2!

I know, but I still hate it :(

LEXION 11-12-2007 01:48 PM

Worst season that ever exists. Everything frozes, its almost imposible to drive, no more supercar sightings, no more short skirts, no more bending to tie a shoe less because you are dressed with 10 clothes to keep the cold away, no more drinks on the terrace, no more swiming in the pool, no more sun bathing.......counting the days until Spring and SUMMER!!!!!

gucom 11-12-2007 05:21 PM

lol indeed winter is great when u can enjoy its benefits... but here in holland snow is becoming increasingly rare and it hardly ever freezes enough to skate anymore (there's a BIG difference with the situation now and in my childhood), so it's just a cold and wet season now... which sucks, also because of the aforementioned thicker layers of clothing on girls...

jon_s 11-12-2007 05:34 PM

I like the weather we are having here in the UK [well, London]. Pretty cold, clear blue skies and sunny :)

stmoritzer 11-12-2007 05:35 PM

:love: winter (no surprise :wink:)

pzgren 11-13-2007 05:38 AM

i love winter!!!! i prepared my snowboards a few weeks ago, ready to go!

and don't tell me winter is too cold, it's just a matter of right clothing.

if i look out of my window the nearby hills are already covered with snow... YES!!! hope we'll have lot's of snow this winter..
