    Depends on the person. It sometimes gets into the negative double digits F where I live. Its forecasted to snow around Christmas and I’m hyped as fuck.

      I used to live further North and I miss the snow. We still get some here, but it typically melts off within a week or two.

    I live in the north of Sweden. I always hope for a white Christmas. If there’s no snow, it’s so dark, and gloomy. A few hours of sunlight in a day. No snow usually means it’s cold enough for rain and a little bit of snow, but also warm enough to melt it to turn it into slush.

    So definitely, we always hope for a crisp, snowy Christmas. Every year. More opportunities for outdoor activities then, too.

    Never. Christmas time should be cold af, dark for most if not all of the day, and in deep snow.

    No, because snow is nice and beautiful. The problem is, we don’t get a white christmas (or have snow for most of the winter) every year, because where I live we mostly either get wet warm winds which lead to rain or we get cold dry winds which just lead to cold days without snow.

    The snow doesn’t bother me nearly as much as the -20 degree F temps. These nips could cut glass.

    I love the snow covered scenery if it’s like 30 F (-1 C) outside. We got our first big snow yesterday, and it’s definitely an improvement over browns and grays we’ve had for a month. When it’s negative degrees F though, that can piss right off.

    My favorite season is spring, when the very first spring ephemeral flowers pop through the slush and mud, before the tree leaves bud out. I wouldn’t want to miss that.
