Summer to autumn or winter to spring? Which do you prefer?

I'm gonna go with summer to autumn. It feels like a nice stable transition and it's nuanced. Temperatures slowly and slowly become cooler. Very straightforward transition here, with no extremities.

Winter to spring is too abrupt, "bipolar" and inconsistent. You'd quickly get 30C heat and yet you'll be getting a chilly 16C the next day.

Here it's the opposite. Summer to autumn is far too abrupt and winter to spring is a nice transition.

Summer to autumn because warmth and I don't get along so I'm happy when it goes away.

I'll go with summer to autumn as well. It such an uplifting time of the year -march is the sunniest month and is as warm as the first month of summer. The air becomes much clearer, and the tops of the mountains start getting the first dustings of snow.

Winter to spring. I love seeing those 20C days in the forecast for the first time.

Winter to spring. I hate autumn as it reminds me of the upcoming darkness that winter brings.

Summer to Autumn for me. There's nothing more beautiful then fall leaves on a frosty night with a full moon. Halloween is my favorite holiday and I look forward to the decorations. We also have some warm nights which are perfect for a late night bike ride. It's even more fun when certain houses in the neighborhood go all out decorating for Halloween.

Fall means winter is around the corner and I do better in cold weather then the heat. Yes it's nice to see some green poking through all the mud that lasts forever in the spring, but I prefer frozen ground covered in snow.

Early spring is my least favorite time of year and I can't wait to put March behind us. Those late night bike rides are just around the corner and the wind finally goes away. My legs still hurt from that 12 mile bike ride in the wind a couple of days ago. I had to ride against the wind for 6 miles. Stupid aggravating March, go away.
