I love it, and am moving to the midwest where there's REAL winters! My aunt moved from Florida to Nebraska, where it can go from 40s to below 0 in just a few hours, and she loves it. Says all you need is a good coat and such and it's easier to adapt than heat. She's lived her whole life in tropical weather, nothing colder than 40s and 30s btw. She wasn't as big a fan of cold but loves it now.
Of course I love stormy kind of weather in general, whether it's a summer thunderstorm or a blizzard. Sunshine obviously is great, but I like some cold and some rain/snow to break up the mundanity.
So yes, I love winter, provided it's cold, and if there's snow, even better!
Wait until you slip for the ummmteenth time in hard, cold ice or have frostbite in your nose hairs / eyes /lips and fingers !
I love winter. I love the cold and the snow. The only thing I hate about winter is how short the days are. Seasonal depression, for me, usually kicks in around mid-January. If winter daylight hours were like summer I'd be perfectly happy in a cool climate.

I prefer winters over summers - with winters, you can layer up to keep yourself warm. You can't exactly take off that many layers to keep yourself cool in the summertime.
Yes, very much so. I absolutely despise any kind of cold. And this winter is one of the worst I've experienced.
Snowstorms are the only thing I like about winter, but I hate when the snow sticks around for longer than a day or two, which is usually the case. No one likes brown/black slush.
I know what you mean about the discolored snow after it's been there a while. However, I disagree, as I find it better than no snow at all. It's still pretty in its own way. This winter has actually made me like cold and snow even more than I used to in the sense that I feel I just need even more of it than I needed before.
Winter is a waste. If you keep yourself in shape you'd want to be seen imo. Plus the hassle of having to shovel snow and let your car warm up. I could be dropped off in the desert or rain forest and would absolutely love it.

getting sick of it...though the supposedly cold NY winter this year is still nicer by far than any Chicago winter I ever experienced. I generally don't like highs under 45.
January was so back and forth it wasn't that far from normal, I think only 2F below normal.

Note Jan 7, 2014 had an afternoon temperature of 10°F, if it had been warmer overnight before, it would have been a very cold day for the city.
