For me, I can’t stand it tbh! As I’m tying this, it’s 3am and it’s 22° but I’m still hot. I had a cold shower a few hours ago and I feel like having another one. I tried opening the window and it’s helped a bit but not by much, and now I’m having to deal with mosquitoes coming into my room. I’ve already killed 3 in the space of roughly 10 minutes! Sleeping is also a struggle since you can’t use the blanket and both sides of the pillows are warm. I had to take my shirt off since it was clean and I didn’t want to ruin it by getting it bathed in my sweat. I’m feeling less hot now but my forehead and my body is still sweating slightly. Stuff like this makes me miss early-mid spring tbh.

The one thing I love about summer though is that I get more freetime to go to places or to spend time with my relatives. I have plans for this summer which I’m hoping to fulfill all of them, and I’m definitely down for going to the beach.

I love summer. It's the season in which i can go out without wearing sweaters and stuff. I even perform significantly better on my road racing bicycle. I can ride my motorcycle in leathers without getting chilly on the highway. And i love the smell of all the plants.

Since i work in education, it also means 4 weeks of vacation.

The only thing is that since climate change properly set in, my formerly cold and rainy country now has a fairly significant number of days between 30 and 40 degrees. In those nights it's hard to get my bedroom to stay below 25 degrees, so i've succumbed and bought an AC. Luckily my rental has a PV system that costs me 10 euro a month, and is enough to run the AC for completely free between about 9:00 and 15:00. Being so wasteful with electricity feels super weird to me, since operating it for that time period would normally cost me 1,50 per day. I can backfeed but the more i backfeed, the more grid usage fees are levied so i don't miss a lot of income by using my own power.

With regards to mosquitos: fly screens. They are indispensible. I've always had them until now. Even if it's just a cheap and shitty one you attach with velcro tape to the window frame, it's worth it. I am currently without in my new house because i have plastic/PVC window frames that i'm not allowed to drill into so i'm still thinking about how to attach one. Might hot glue magnets to the frame (easy to remove without a trace with IPA) and glue steel strips to a length of fly screen material, idk yet.

@phosco179 Don't come to Australia then! In summer, I have to walk home in ~38° weather! Going outside in spring usually involves a swarm of mosquitos. With that said, I do love living here and certainly prefer hot whether to the below 0 whether we have now!

The longer days are my favourite part of summers here in Canada. Close to the summer solstice, it doesn't get dark until 9PM here. Meanwhile the darkest day here on the winter solstice, it get dark at around 4:30PM.

The heat and humidity can be pretty hard to tolerate, but most people have AC here which helps a lot. And I much rather prefer heat compared to -20C days in the winter, or shoveling snow.

Summer is my most favourite time, I love tropical nights and night biking, about sleeping, in nights I usually leave window fully open, we have mosquitoes screens so this isn't a problem.
Sadly this year pissed me by not that good temperatures over central european region, may was cold, june too... I hope later months will be just better..

Well I don't know how to answer that question because I live in Fort Lauderdale, Florida and summer is pretty much eternal except between January and March it can be absolute paradise. My favorite season is Fall because that means Halloween 🎃!
Of course we pay the price living here because summer is hurricane season and we never know if this year is going to be the year... about we can do is hold on to our coconuts

Tbh, I feel alone in disliking summer. I can understand why people like it and there’s certain aspects about it that I do enjoy, but it’s the heat and the bugs that prevents me from liking it more. Sadly my house doesn’t have AC and I don’t even have a fan in my room so I’m forced to sleep in the heat since opening the window barely helps. Thankfully, today is more cooler.

@phosco179: You're not alone I really don't like summer at all. The heat, humidity, violent thunderstorms, and the risk of a devastating hurricane but living in Florida I guess we all just have to accept that. At least in your part of the world it cools down eventually.

Washington summers are so lovely; it hardly ever gets above 90°F, at least on the Western side. Everything here is so green because of how many tree varieties there are. Some days, it gets really humid though. I remember one day last summer when it was so humid, I could barely breathe. Nighttime is usually around 65-70°F. Upon occasion, you can hear a few crickets chirping at night.

Absolutely NOT! I would be fit for tropical climates, like 28°C all year-round and frequent heat waves. They're not comfortable by any means, but reduced activity and a fan is all I need to deal with them.

In stark contrast, I find cold to be just unbearable. And does it get cold around here! Did have to get the carts at my job once when it was around -30°C and like -42 with wind chill. I never thought hell could feel this cold... 

 Today it was around 93°f with high humidity !!  My thought : In cold weather , you can always put more on . In hot weather , you can't get enought off !! 

@wide-lite 1000: obviously you've never shopped at a Walmart in Fort Lauderdale before 
But didn't know Ohio could have heat and humidity as bad as South Florida

If I HAD to choose a least favorite season, it would be summer. Where I live, it’s hot and very humid. I don’t sleep well when it’s hot, and I can’t stand the feeling of sweating through my clothes as soon as I step outside. Mosquitos combined with the heat make the outdoors unbearable this time of the year. I’m just thankful I work in an air conditioned building and have air conditioning in my house.

As a child, summer had much more appeal because I was out of school and my family and I took fun vacations. Now there’s no such thing as summer break for adults, unless you’re a teacher or work at a school.

 @Wingnut : It doesn't get like this often but it does happen from time to time . Oh , and regarding Wal-Mart , how's about this one :        https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6RzcvFLPg1A
