Although I love the hot summers, I would take snow over that any day!

Easy decision for me. ❄

Although I'm quite partial to a hot summer too.  ☀

It’s painful waiting for this cold weather! Looking forward to seeing some familiar names back on this thread as it starts to roll in and of course waiting to see what effect the M4 will have! No model can take account of that! 

[Bobafet]

After a heavy frost this morning and glorious sunny day today, I have a temperature of 3.2 degrees this evening.

Before the BFTE last year, before the big flip the cold in the shorter range models, I remember lots of ensembles sudddenly going for very cold minimas. The cold is a coming. I'm ready xD I said I wouldn't get excited yet!
