I get depressed during summer, hayfever really drags down enjoyment :( I do love the winter though, just something about pristine snow, it relaxes me alot.

I complain less when it's freezing out.

I complain a lot when it's hot.

I am very fond of the rain.

That is all.
Same + I love the winter/cold/mountains.

dreary cloudy days make me a little depressed and makes me want to sleep in. Bright and sunny days make me happier and i can wake up earlier and not feel like crap. Thunderstorms make me paranoid.....no idea why.

I live in Australia where even in the green, urban environments of Melbourne, Brisbane and bits south-east of the Blue Mountains hit ~40'C in the summer. It's crazy. Go further north-west and the only things that survive are the lizards underground and people who have been there for 40,000 years.

EDIT: Ooops. Forgot OT. I like rainy days and nights when you can hear the roar of rain on the roof.

Sunny weather makes me both lethargic and bitter. I like it overcast, silver skies bring contentment.

The weather only really affects me if it's extreme on either end of the spectrum (i.e.- really hot and really cold.)

I also hate rain, since the pitter-patter always distracts me.

I get annoyed when its too hot for me, and, since I'm British, I get grumpy when the weather gets hotter than around, 20 degrees Celsius.

I also get kind of annoyed when it rains, although thunderstorms are cool, especially at night.

I get very angry during sunny weather.
Glad I'm not alone, It's not that I hate the sun I prefer if the sunlight wasn't so bright, so hot and sweaty. I really can't think of how people in other countries deal with it.

To be pretty honest. I always preferred wrapping up in winter in snug clothing. And snow in general is pure awesome.

EDIT: Hayfever doesn't help either.

Well when the sun shines my boyfriend often lays around the house without a tshirt on... so the sun makes me frisky.
I like smell of fresh rainfall, that makes me calm.

Depends on the season.

Summertime sun makes me slow. Not sleepy, just slow. I procrastinate more, I start to avoid social contact and generally just, I don't know, reduce my pace. I can't think properly when the temperature goes above 26-ish. Everything is just sluggish.
It also activates my allergy. I don't know what I am allergic to, but my nose turns into a faulty faucet, constantly leaking icky goo during summer mornings and summer evenings.

Summertime nights on the other hand; Ah, here we go. Bliss. Silk smooth air, warm enough to run around in a pair of shorts and a tee, cold enough to be able to do a proper work out. If the summer nights where as long as the winter nights, good lord I'd climb every building in the neighbourhood, letting out my happiness in gleeful nonsensical gibberish.

Rain makes me content. No matter what time of the year, I can sit and idly watch the rain for hours on end. I simply love the sound, the smell, the feel of it. I feel very much alive when it rains.

Snow.
Ah, here we go.
I function at my peak when there's a 2 meter deep layer of snow covering everything, no matter if I'm outside of inside. Falling snow makes me contemplative and thoughtful. My studies yield the most results when It's snowing.
Still snow makes me active and outgoing. I can run for hours on end.
Sunny winter days activates me. I am happy, innovative and alive whenever the temperature falls under 0. It's not the feeling that I am induced with when it rains, it's something more. I am fulfilled, whole. I can't explain it, it's just the way I work. No matter what, I will always prefer winter to any other season. -40 and the metal is creaking in pain? No problem. I know how to dress for it, and I have my equipment. I intuitively know what to do and how to act to preserve myself. In the very essence of the phrase, I am a winter person.

during violent thunderstorms.........well lets say I'm very very very very VERY.....um....aggressive in my wants..... yeah lets leave it at that.

when it's hot and sunny ( and to me thats anything above 85f) Im a *****, quiet, and often have a killer migraine and mild heat exhaustion

overcast, and cool ( with or without a light rain) I'm more spunky and sociable and dare I say alittle childish with my sense of humor.

cold ( and here where I am in WA, winter brings around 10 feet of snow that wont melt until march, and below freezing temps) I'm more or less unaffected in large but more influenced by those around me.

Allergy.

I love cloudy, rainy days. I hate days like today - sunny, dry. My nose has been sore and wet at the same time since 7AM and my eyes hurt.
