I know I live in northern Indiana but this sucks!
It's 37* and has been alternating between rain and wet, clumpy sleet.
I complain every year, but the older I get, the more I seem to complain about it!
The end!

That sounds miserable especially so early.

All my IA/IL friends/family posting about snowflakes. Noooooope.
I'm annoyed that it went from like 85 to 45 here, it's about 55 right now. Where are my 70 degree days? But at least it's not snowing!!!

Bring on winter! So Cal has been great for the last week or so…low to mid 70s. For the next 2-3 days it’s gonna be 90! I’m so over the heat!

I was outside in cold weather for a Friday night football game, a Saturday morning marching band competition and a Sunday afternoon baseball game--but I'm thankful none of those were as cold as today and yesterday! But since this coming weekend is supposed to be in the 70s I won't even complain about yesterday and today. At least we didn't have snow here.

My brother in northern Michigan got 14 inches of snow!
I could never move back there. It’s not unusual to have snow on Halloween, but not this much, this early in the season. They typically get about 200 inches of snow / year.

When I lived in upstate NY I felt like winter began the day summer ended, and it was depressing. I feel your pain! The best I could do is look at it as cozy sweater weather and try to enjoy mugs of hot chocolate, flannel sheets and toasty fires as much as possible.

I was surprised when I heard on the news last night that Michigan got snow!! Here we are, in a small warming trend (90 tomorrow), and places are already getting snow! I want it to go back to the low 70's. Perfect for me!

We had a record breaking low of 25 this morning and they're saying high of 82 on Friday-Sunday. It's annoying to keep opening and closing the windows, but otherwise, I'll take it over super hot temps any day.

I'm the same way with the summer, but I don't live in a cold climate. If I live where it snowed I'd be miserable.

If I didn't have to drive in it, I wouldn't mind the snow. But I hate, hate, hate to drive in it (doesn't help I live in a really hilly town) so I hate winter.

I love when the temps cool down and I can wear socks and a cardigan. The cozy vibes of fall and winter are great. Granted the winters get long, but I have a heated attached garage and my DH does all the snow removal.  |

I am with you! A part of my soul died today as I ran on the treadmill for the first time this season. I have such a hard time letting summer go. I just don’t do cold well.

I complain every year, but the older I get, the more I seem to complain about it! The end! I’m in NE Indiana. Yesterday rain turned to snow and it actually stuck on the grass and my deck. I wasn’t expecting that (and neither were my dogs) so early in the season. I really don’t mind cooler weather. Almost 10 years in Texas cured me of wanting to live someplace hot. What I really hate is when the leaves come down and it’s not only cold, but everything and I mean everything is brown until April. Ugh. |

I actually like winter, just not for 7 months. We are having the most glorious fall. Usually it feels like fall is over 10 days after fall starts. Last night was 13C/54F that's crazy, usually our high isn't that high. The last few days have been in the low 20s/70s. Sunday will knock us back to reality with a high of 2C/34F. We haven't had a hard frost yet, we could have one as early as the first week in September. The wind can always f-off. Set a record last week one day it was 94 kmh/58 mph. Right now the daytime temps could be at the highest low 20s/70s or at the lowest -20C/-4F, we're always ready for anything.

We are in the 20s today. Saturday we are supposed to be in the 70s. I hate the time between fall-winter and winter-spring when it fluctuates this much.

We've had some really gorgeous days the last two months. I'm not ready for snow yet, but I'll take the cooler days all year. |

I grew up in Michigan and like cold weather. In fact, I’ll go one further - I prefer cloudy days. I think the vibe of a cloudy day is very calming.

My sister is in central IN and had to listen to her bitch all day over the snow they got that melted by afternoon. She's a whiner for sure.
I'm not exactly thrilled that it is supposed to get up to 92 tomorrow, but at least our nights are cooling way down.

I'm in Colorado and kinda shocked we haven't had our usual one early snowfall. And sometimes Halloween is done in the snow.. sometimes in A LOT of snow... We are actually having a great fall season.. I feel like we jump from summer to winter pretty fast. I am enjoying fall this year. Except the leaves.. I love the leaves.. just not raking them up.. blah.

The temperature plunged yesterday and it was freezing last night! I'm with you I hate the cold! Currently it's 55 degrees and it's supposed to get down to 41 degrees tonight. It'll get a little warmer tomorrow and this weekend it's supposed to get to 67 degrees and be sunny. Our fall so far has been much to warm (actually I've loved the warm weather hanging on) and 3-4 nights ago we could still hear crickets at night. Most of the leaves on the trees are still green with maybe 10-20% colored leaves. I'd prefer to live where it's warm 75 degrees and sunny all of the time. Time to pull out my fleece pants and long underwear. |

I’ll sit on the bench with you grammanisi. I’m another one in IN. We had just a few flurries yesterday. Winter never used to bother me but the older I get the more I complain about it. I need the sunshine. The days just seem so long and dreary. |
