I'm sure there are Floridians who enjoy cold weather.

Houston can and does get cold. This isn't the Caribbean.

Cold can be uncomfortable, but knowing how long and hot the steamy summer days last here, I'm liking the change. My skin and body like the cooler temperatures too.

This.

The heat lingers and lingers and lingers for way too long. Now that's miserable.

I wish we had lows in the 30s, highs in the 40s. Just give me 2 months of that continuously and I'll deal with the May-September Hell in Houston. Shoot, it starts getting steamy in March.

I want this weather to continue. I love the rain because I never want to go through another drought again and I love the cold weather because it wasn't that long ago that we were breaking heat records with no relief in sight. Forecast is already calling for mid 70s next week. I can't believe how soon winter will be exiting Houston. At this rate we will probably break 100 degrees by April or May this year.

Not necessarily. We'll be seeing a warm up, but that doesn't mean winter is done with us. As far as the rain goes, I know we need it, but I prefer for it to fall on one of our warmer days. I'm hoping for a very wet spring and summer.

I'm sick of it. I hate cold weather.

If I had it my way, I'd live somewhere where it was 85/65 every day, with occasional rain.

In my opinion, the changing of the seasons is highly overrated.

The older I get the less I like the cold.

That's when you jump in a swimming pool

Because we all have the extra time and the access to a pool?

The older I get, the less I can tolerate the heat.


A bath in the pool in August doesn't do it for me.
