Yes, I love winter. The beauty of snow, snowboarding and winter sports. Love it. But I enjoy all seasons honestly. It's nice to have a change.

Re: Is anyone looking forward to winter?
I like a little bit of winter. The first snowfall, wearing cozy sweaters and boots, and excuse to drink hot toddys.
But by the end of January I've had enough and can't wait for the weather to warm up a bit and trees to start sprouting. Then I start to complain about my allergies and can't wait for summer to get here.
My ideal - temps of 72-75, sunny and moderate humidity.

I'm happy with the weather now. It's perfect!
I enjoyed the warm Christmas last year (well, except that someone was cold and made us close the windows so the rest of us were sweating).

Re: Is anyone looking forward to winter?
I despise winter. I hate snow. I hate the cold. I hate the early darkness. I hate most everything about the winter. I am always cold normally, so that doesn't help things. And I absolutely hate having to dress in layers. I hate feeling constricted by layers and layers of clothes and sweaters and coats and scarves and hats and gloves...
Despite that, I look forward to the first day of winter every year. Simply because I know that once that day hits, every day after that is a step closer to the nicer weather lol. The days start getting longer, the weather will eventually turn warmer... and I can remind myself that we will be outside all day gardening and swimming and doing summery stuff sooner rather than later. I would be very happy in a three season environment... long summer, and then a bit of autumn and a bit of spring. Unfortunately, I haven't found a place with ten months of summer, one month of autumn and one month of spring. 
I don't mind fall so much, and it is truly beautiful in it's own way. However, I find the days leading up to the first day of winter to be so depressing. I am probably the text book definition of SAD, though...

I hated it. It doesn't feel like Christmas when it's warm. I thought about the McAllister's in Florida in Home Alone. LOL

Not even a little and I get major seasonal affective disorder because of it. Give me a 90 degree day over a 30 degree day any day!

In case you have not looked it up, the sun starts to set at the 5 pm mark on January 22nd. Then the summer light is so close after that.
So I'm with her, I HATE the fall/winter.

Definitely not a fan - I'm cold all the time. I like one big snow fall, but then I want it to melt away instead of having a 3 foot ice barrier in the streets and sidewalks. However I love everything about winter.... until after Christmas. Then I'm done with it.
Dec 21 is one of my favorite days b/c I know that the days start to get longer.

Is anyone looking forward to winter?
Definitely not! Hate being cold; hate having to wear a heavy coat, scarf, gloves; hate the biting, freezing wind; hate trying to walk across parking lots that are filled with icy patches; hate driving in the snow; hate not being able to wear cute summer clothes; hate that it gets dark so early.
I do look forward to maybe one nice, big snow storm, where you are stuck inside all day, but not the aftermath mess. I hate when we get those small little snow storms with 1-4 inches of snow - just enough to mess up traffic but not enough for an excuse to stay home

I could have written this word for word (except the part about fall, I hate fall too! ) But the looking forward to 12/21 because the days start getting longer, and the SAD, and the hatred for sweaters and bulk and layers- ALLLL ME

Re: Is anyone looking forward to winter?
Guess I'm in the minority but I enjoy winter. It does get dreary in late winter though, I'll give you that. Enough is enough at that point. But I love the snow, sledding, cute sweaters and boots, fur lined jackets, hot drinks, the fireplace, etc. my all time favorite season is fall though. I despise summer. I hate the heat and humidity.

Re: Is anyone looking forward to winter?
I'm looking forward to it being over! Unless by some miracle we get graced with a really mild winter. I could get used to 70 degrees on Christmas Eve like last year.
