Summer. At least in Finland. I think Turku is rather unknown internationally.

Helsinki is associated with early winter, gloom and sleet.

I'd say that Crimea is commonly associated with summer because it's popular beach resort. Also I can say the same about some other places in southern Ukraine (Odessa for example). Carpathian mountains are usually associated with winter because it's a ski resort. Don't know about other places in Ukraine.

I do not think the Loire Valley is associated especially with one particular seasons, since most touristic attractions are cultural ones (castles) and not typically summer ones (like beach, etc.) or winter ones (like skiing).

As such I might associate our region rather with Spring and autumn (our forests and vineyards become beautiful) than summer or winter.

Winter, cold, grey drizzly gloom and horses ass stratocrapulous layer cloud (naturally the pre-dominant cloud type in this maritime dogs ass climate.) There is about a 364:1 stratus to thunderstorm ratio here these days.

Every other city in Australia is associated with warmth and sunshine.

I wold say spring for Ireland. I associate it with rains, fog and lots of greenery. Not so much with snow and ice.

Rain isn't really a wintry thing. If you get rain during your winters, it's not that cold :P

Hard one to answer, but certainly not summer!

People probably associate Scotland with grey, damp weather, which probably translates to autumn.

We don't really have 4 seasons here. We have a light season and a dark season.
