Obviously this only applies to people in the northern hemisphere, but I guess anybody in the south can just go off their past anecdotes.
Where I live it usually rains from August to December, then snows in January, then rains again from February to mid-May. Right now we’ve been getting highs of 75F (~23C) (yes, go ahead and laugh Arizonans) and I’ve just been dying inside. I have my fan constantly on and my car’s A/C is on literally the coldest temperature. I love the rain here and it hasn’t rained for an actual month. We had one (!) overcast day in the past like 3 weeks. I just really wanna wake up to rain and 45F (~7C) again. I know I’ve only got a month and a half til that starts to become a reality, but it’s just passing by so slowly

It’s been rubbish where we live. I don’t feel like we’ve had a summer this year. There’s been the odd hot day, but it’s most rained and/or been windy and/or been overcast.
Are you also in Britain?
Yup.
I’m not fully there yet since this summer has been more reasonable this year here, but I’m on my way to wishing it would go by quicker.
Words cannot express how much I hate walking out of the gym after a workout, already pouring sweat, exhausted, and out of breath, into essentially an outdoor sauna, and then into my car with all-black interior that you can’t even breathe when you get in because it’s so hot. Such an all-around awful feeling.
Also, like you, I really don’t like the super long days. I don’t like the super short days either, but right now it’s still bright out when I go to sleep and it’s annoying. I like having a couple hours where it’s dark before I go to bed as it feels like a nice wind down and perfect for watching TV or gaming without glares on the TV or just my space being lighter than I want.
Ha, 75, i wish. Try 95 for 3 months streight
I literally wrote about this in the post
Enjoy this cool weather people! It’s the coolest one we will have going forward.
Nah, I’m getting older and every year feels shorter. Shit goes by quick enough already.
Also, lol @ 75F being considered hot. I’m not even close to Arizona. Completely other side of the country (both vertically and horizontally if that makes sense) and even here 75 is a joke.
Absolutely because I’m not a fan of the heat, and actually much less active during the summer because it takes longer for the outside to cool down enough where it’s more comfortable than being with AC.
Thankfully this summer in the UK hasn’t been as bad as last year. I hate the heat but there’s been lots of rain which is nice. The humidity is what gets to me the most.
Britain is like a sponge which soaks up ALL the rain from November to May, then it gets gradually steamed out for a few months.
Great way of putting it!
I live in MN and 75F would be a dream right now. It’s been nothing but 80s-90s for the last month or so.

I live in a similar climate but it’s a little warmer than where you’re at now. Actually summers are the only time I don’t feel like I’m suffering, since as I’ve grown older I’m cold all of the time. I was just in Alaska last weekend and it was chilly and rainy. Perhaps that’s more your speed, though it does stay light pretty late.

I hate summer and can’t stand heat. It’s simple: It’s cold? Can always add more layers of clothes. It’s hot? What am I gonna do once I’m out of clothing layers and it’s still too hot, remove my sweating skin?
I for one support becoming a walking skeleton
The electricity bill makes me hate summer.
Water becomes your friend. Humans were literally designed for hot African weather. Until it reaches the hundreds you should be totally fine even comfortable if you take the right precautions.
I never feel right in winter gear, it traps a layer of sweat and fails to cover my face. It always disincentivizes me from leaving my heated indoor environments, and no matter how much you wear you still know it’s cold. However I’m fine existing outside from 55-95 degrees.
See, this just fucking baffles me, because I know humans evolved for tropical climates, but according to science (Google) the optimal temperature for sleeping is 60-65 F?!
Go camping, night time is usually cold even on hot days.
My habitable zone is 69-71f…
I… actually kind of like feeling slightly cold. Shivering kind of feels nice. I may be slightly masochistic. I hate summer though.
