Your favorite weather?

I was at work today (delivering pizzas), and the weather could only be described as "misting". It wasn't a downpour, and there weren't even what most would consider normal raindrops. It was a consistent diagonal sprinkling akin to what sitting in front of a misting fan would feel like. Anyway, I delivered a pizza to this girl, and I mentioned how much this sucks that there was rain in mid-July. She disagreed, saying this was her "favorite weather". As I drove back to the restaurant, I started thinking about what my favorite weather is. It was a topic I had broached with previous girlfriends, sadly. I always balked at the question, for lack of a real answer. Today, however, I decided that 75 degrees, clear, with a bit of a cool breeze was my idea of a perfect weather day.

What would all of you descibe as your favorite kind of weather?

Whatever weather prompts young, lithe women to wear bikinis and short shorts with tank tops. That's my favorite weather.

75, light breeze, overcast but not raining.

Second favorite, assuming I don't have to drive somewhere, would be a huge blizzard.

The weather that gets women to wear little to no clothes while driving, giving me a good view.

I would agree with that broad mentioned in the original post. I'd call it "Oregon weather".

Depends on my mood

If I'm in a good mood: temperature in the mid 50s to mid 60s, sunny, clear skies, no humidity.

If I'm in a bad mood: severe thunderstorms, hailstones the size of small planets smashing everything to bits

Where's the trout option?

Thunder and lightning or mid to low 70s, scattered clouds with a breeze coming in from the North West.

In the mid-to-upper 20s (celcius), not humid (hate that sticky feeling), and sunny.

edit: a light breeze is nice too if it's on the upper side of the 20s.

+1. Perfect golf weather. Not hot enough to sweat while playing, and a nice breeze to give a bit of coolness.

Anything than Wyoming in the winter.

But seriously? Mid 80s, low humidity and an ocean breeze.

Wyoming's winter is pretty damned nice compared to Wisconsin and Minnesota.

My favorite weather is when it's cloudy all day and either rainy or snowy. I hate when it starts out cloudy and then the sun comes out later in the day.

A good day in west Michigan in late October - 58 degrees, breezy, sunny and the smell of dry, autumn leaves in the air.

That's what heaven will be like.

Warm autumn sunset, oak trees with browning leaves and a slight gust so they're drifting ... but not so much that its ruffling the pages of the book I'm reading while sitting beneath it

Speaking of favorite, we should see some snow flurries tonight, but nothing like what Montana and Wyoming have been experiencing. I love the cold, blustery fall weather like today where I don't think it got above 40. It's about @%#! time since most of September was in the mid-high 70s.

Beautiful evening here in Chicago. Dry, cloudless, with the temperature coming down from the high-70s probably into the 40s overnight.

Great day for Ultimate Frisbee (earlier) and griling (just finished).

The Ice Age is sweeping east, it would appear....

A quote on my favorite time of year, from Neil Gaiman: "WE are gathered here at the final end of what Bradbury called the October Country: a state of mind as much as it is a time. All the harvests are in, the frost is on the ground, there’s mist in the crisp night air and it’s time to tell ghost stories."
