I spent a summer in Phoenix when I was 10....You could literally burn yourself touching your car............LOVED IT!!
Spent a few days in Phoenix when I was 16....Played Frisbee for about 10 minutes and thought I was gonna die.

What a difference a few years in age makes.

I liked Phoenix. Massive sprawl but it was a nice city and I felt really clean for a city of it's size. I was there in September so it wasn't scorching hot. I was told in the middle of the summer can just get insanely hot. I was telling my buddy I don't mind hot weather and he said, "that is what you say now until you spend 15-20 days in a row around 110 degrees." Haha He may have a point but I would still take it over winter.

The 2016 season was special, the emergence of Zeke and Dak, even though we lost the first game, Zeke getting into the paint in the 3rd quarter was a really cool memory, an unforgettable run...also the 1992 season that started with a Monday night win against Washington with a blast.

I like September to January a lot because of the Football, but we don't get to see too much of January sadly.
This time of year sucks the most - Winter late 4rth Quarter, winter is coming downhill like a 250 pound fresh Marion Barber III, beast from the NFC East.

I love the fall month of November in particular . Football in full swing , Boys playing on Thanksgiving, Grass cutting is over , tree work is on hold , plowing usually has not started and its time to hunt deer with my bow and birds with my dog .

At my age now I have cut enough grass and plowed enough snow to be very happy with extracting the months of August and February from the calendar. April is also a cool month as I try and trout fish as much as possible till the grass gets booming .

Winter for me. Cold and snowy is what I like. Fall is a close second.

Spring in Oklahoma means keeping an eye on the forecast for tornadoes and large hail.
Summer means hot and humid conditions with constant grass-cutting and yard work.

Scotch season. In colder temps, that begins on 10/31 and concludes with the first budding on the trees, when a young man's thoughts turn to the clear spirits.

I live close to Austin, there are no seasons but Summer, Summer II, Summer III and Rain. Actually, we did have a Winter this winter when it's supposed to be Winter.

When I lived in PA, those people actually have a season for grilling and pull their apparatus out on Memorial Day and put it back on Labor Day. This is very disturbing behavior and I felt the need to go out and grill with 6" of snow on the ground and more coming down in shorts, t and flip flops as the ultimate act of Southern defiance. They, and my wife, thought I was nuts but she sure enjoyed that ribeye.

When I lived in Idaho, I got spoiled. 4 real seasons and they change about the time they're supposed to and with the low humidity, the summers and winters were great.

I commuted to South Central OK from Dallas for several years and took tornadoes too lightly until that F4 monster dropped on Lone Grove in February, 2008. New respect and a hell of a lot more awareness after that. I saw it from the deck of my apartment and didn't realize what I was watching until sustained lightning lit up the sky. It was 1/2 mile wide and something out of a nightmare.

I too love the Spring. Living in a region of 4 seasons can be a handful at times, especially the winter months. But, its a reminder football season has arrived and so has family gatherings with wonderful foods.

Myself, I despise the summer months, especially the last decade or so. We use to have nice summers, not that hot with very limited humidity. Now, the summers are brutal. It's like living in Florida. Can't stand the humidity. Which is why I enjoy the 4 seasons. Never too much of anything but a small taste of everything. ;)

I'm right there with you.

I can tolerate the cold, but the humidity just wrings me out like rag.

Love the Spring & the Fall.

I couldn't take a place that was perpetually... Early summer, summer, late summer like what you get in Florida.

The only thing that helps those two months in Tejas is what the Northeast is dealing with now.

What most of the country doesn't know is that those north-east events are handled pretty quickly by the various agencies like roads and the various public utilities. This last event was a toughy... We probably received 10" of wet, heavy snow that caused a myriad of power outages and such. But it was sorted quickly and in a professional manner. There was no run on grocery stores and people weren't losing their minds over it.

We got hit late Thursday night into Friday morning and by Friday evening we were able to go over to the next town for dinner– The roads were perfectly fine.

And we put up with that because our springs & falls are arguably among the best in the country. Fall in the north east is amazing.
