“Pray don't talk to me about the weather, Mr. Worthing. Whenever people talk to me about the weather, I always feel quite certain that they mean something else. And that makes me quite nervous.”― Oscar Wilde
This is more literal, though. I just got back from a walk in a summer rainstorm, and (predictably) was thinking about the weather in general.
I love being out in heavy rain, as long as it's warm, not overly windy, and I'm not on my way to work (or anywhere else where I wouldn't want to look drowned). Oh, and not getting hit by lightning is also a plus.
As much as I like the idea of a sunny day, I actually don't enjoy being out in the sunshine when it's hot, and soon find myself wishing for a little bit of cloud-cover or a good breeze. Then again, I live in a place that's nicknamed the Fog City, so I really shouldn't complain about the handful of hot, sunny days that we actually get.
Snow is great. Sometimes. Like, the first nice snow storm in the winter is pretty awesome. The novelty wears off pretty quickly, though, what with the constant shovelling and snow-clearing, and dangerously slippery roads and side-walks. Yeah, actually, ******** snow...
So, guildies. Tell me about the weather where you live. What kind of weather do you like (or loathe), and how does it affect your mood? Is your town or city known for any kind of weather in particular? Do you live in a region that gets hit by meteorological disasters (hurricanes, tornadoes, plagues of locusts, etc.)
