I actually like 4 seasons, I love a change in environment, 1 season year-around gets so monotonous and boring, IMO. My ideal place would have:
1. Very Cold, snowy winters(lasts at least 5 months)
2. cool springs 3. Warm Summers(75-84F for highs, cool nights)
4. crisp, cool falls with brilliant colors
can anyone suggest a place?, my best guess is northern New Hampshire
If you like it that warm in summer, you will likely be disappointed with Sault St. Marie, Duluth, most of northern Canada and parts of southern Canada.
In Ontario, it is only in southern Ontario that we actually get any months averaging 75+ F.
I can drive 4 hours north or northeast and the warmest average will only be 72-74 F.

This is exactly what I'm talking about. I don't understand you. How is fantastic weather monotonous and boring? Maybe you need to be tortured by cold weather for part of the year?
I like the 4 seasons idea in only places where its not a cloudy, overcast place. For me Reno, NV (or anywhere around there ie:Carson City, Lake Tahoe area) where it receives over 300 sunny days per year. Receives decent snowfall, for me that my opinion of my perfect climate. I need change in my life not just one boring contineous year of the same weather.
* My nerve disorder stings my bare fingers below 50 F
* My ears sting when the windchillapproaches 32 F.
* My toes and sometimes my fingers don't have any warmth when it's under 75 F
* I usually can't notice any heat index under 100 F
* I typically do not feel hot under 95 F real degrees
* I have never seen weather too hot to be outside, including 104 F and muggy in D.C. that stung my nose a little if I breathed in fast
* I sweat efficiently; hardly ever any noticeable sweat spots on clothing
* I do not like it below 75 F indoors
* Best room temp for me is 78-82 F; preferably with fans
* If it can drop below 65 F before sunrise, it's too chilly to sleep with the windows open.
* I'm Canadian, and nowhere in Canada averages even 60 F for an annual average high...
Which means more than half the year it's "supposed" to be under 60 F "everywhere."
I actually don't love the hot weather as much as despising the cold weather.
I love my climate about 5 months during an average year.
I whine and moan about it the other 7 months.
It can get very cold here though and part of the reason is aches and pains related.
What weather do you consider hot weather?
Is there any hot weather you don't like?
Is there such a thing as too hot for you?
I despise cold more than what I call hot weather too (95+ F)...
I LOVE very warm weather; 85-93 F, which most people call "hot" anyways.
So does that mean you actually like (or don't notice) the occaisional cold fronts in April-thru-early-September?
I have a love/dislike or love/hate relationship with my climate from April until September.
(always about the cooler spells)
October thru March it's more of a hate/hate relationship.

maybe it's because I like........weather, I like having varities of weather like having t-storms, snowstorms, etc. And plus I want to be a meteorologist when I grow up, It would be VERY boring to be a meteorologist for southern California. And plus I LOVE the cold, I don't like the heat, 40-50F is the perfect temperature for me , everyone has their own preferences, don't look down at someone else because they have differenet preferences than you, thank you very much....have a great day

well if you read it's 75-84, preferably on the lower side(76,77) which I know is the average high for Northern NH during July, August.
It is true to say that Melbourne in Australia is cold... But it also has its hot days as well, particularly in Summer. There can be one or two weeks that last above 30 degrees Celsius and remember the heatwave of last Summer SAB??? That was a whole week nearly of warm weather...
Summer is warm, Winter is cold... Thats how it is, and thats normal anyway!

I'm not looking down on anyone. I'm simply stating that I don't understand it. The same way I wouldn't understand someone who's favorite food was, say parsley or cactus. You're correct, there's variance in the climates preferred. However, most people agree on the most comfortable temperatures and conditions. There's actually a great deal of agreement on this. Thus it's difficult to understand why someone would 'need' what are most often considered uncomfortable temperatures like 20s or 90s.
Everything is relative. I live in the San Fernando Valley in Southern California, which is an important distinction from metro L.A.; because of the micro climates in the L.A. area, there are times when there is a 35 degree difference between here and a beach that's only 20 miles away. Last weekend was a perfect example of this. It was 107 here last Saturday, but my son came back from the beach and said it was in the mid-70s there!
On the bright side, though, our heat waves last for a few days, not weeks on end. I remember hearing about some really bad ones in Dallas, like over 35 days of temps over 95 degrees, and ten years ago there were 15 days of temps over 100!
