I love winter. Nice break from all the heat and humidity and sweating when you walk form the car to the house.

The best thing about the first day of winter, is that spring is only 3 months away.
If it's above 70. it's too warm. Unless I am at the beach or the pool, give me under 70 any day.
Yeah - I have lived in places with cold, snowy winters. Buffalo and Vermont.
I love every time we get snow here in Raleigh, though with climate change, it's getting more infrequent.
I getcha. I lived in Maine, grew up in NYC and outside Philly ... I don't mind the cold as much as the Pac NW's unremitting *GRAY* from about Halloween through St. Patty's Day.
I like the first day of winter because it marks the shortest day of the year and we can start to gain some of that afternoon sunlight back. I hate when we roll the clocks back and it starts getting dark even earlier. As far as the cold. I live in Charleston so we only really have a cold day here and there and I am alright with that. The past couple of years we've actually had a really nice spring without it being 95 in May hope that trend continues this year.
Ugh...that was the downside of being stationed in Germany in the winter. Day after dreary day of gray overcast clouds with the temperature often in the range of a low of 24 - 26 with a high of 28 - 30.
