I love snow, I love it so very much. Especially when it comes in large quantities and cancels school. Hopefully for several days in a row.

White Juan! Come baaaack!

Can you not like snow? Is that physically possible?

The only snow I don't like is when it starts to get warm again, and cars have turned it into brown wet mud that somehow gets through all types of footwear.

This is Southern California. To us it looks like you guys have a lot of cocaine. We don't get snow.

In Alabama, we don't get snow; we get a thin layer of frost at most. Yes, it falls from the sky, but I don't think it is what northerners would consider real snow.

So, I don't really know. But it looks really neat on television!

I love making snow balls with my boyfriend, and then passing it back and forths whilst kissing....

Oh, you're talking about *that* snow - well, still kinda relevant then :p

Said frozen rain occurs only around the week of the winter sulstace. The latest in the winter I've ever seen snow is Febuary. It's just thick enough to throw snowballs at each other, though. And really slushy ones!

It doesn't really matter if you like it or not here... you have to put up with it... how I'm looking forward to deicing and desnowing my car... reminds me, need to change to winter tyres this week.

We don't have the "snowball effect here." We call it the "domino effect."

I used to really really like the summer, hot weather was heaven, that was until I ended up in Arizona at 9 months pregnant in 107 degree temp. :(

now I love the winter, you can always put more clothes on, but once you are naked you are naked and if you are still too hot, there's nothing you can do about it.:(

If I never see snow again, it'll be too soon. Luckily, it rarely snows where I am. If it does snow, I refuse to leave the house.

Chillin' out in rarely-hotter-than-30°C Nova Scotia. :D It generally doesn't get overly hot here, though sometimes the humidity can be deadly.

If it is Mon-Thursday, HECK YEAH, I love snow -- until I have to shovel it.
Friday-Sunday it sucks. It means I can't travel.

I love snow. I remember that it used to snow all the time in Manchuria.

Then again, it was -20 C sometimes. >_>

YAY FOR SNOW! Except when it's real windy too and it blows in your eyes. But when it turns up in enormous drifts and you can make small houses out of it, it's cool. Mind you, that did only happen when I was like, 5. :D

I like snow when I'm skiing or sledding.

Otherwise, I'd rather not have to shovel it, drive in it, walk through it, or in any other way interact with snow in any manner whatsoever.

I need to move. :p

Yes I do like snow. I like the flurries of November and even better when they stick. In December I like Christmas snow, and maybe even a snowstorm between Christmas and New Year's. I love the cold dry drifting snows of January, and I can even get into storms with visibility as low as three feet.

But I can't stand the sooty, blackened snows of February. Or the yellow stuff.

I used to not really care about the snow one way or the other, but then I went to Iraq. Wearing body armor when its 130+ will make you want to crawl into a freezer and never come out.

Luckily, I live in Michigan so we get all that crazy lake effect snow.

I must say, that being of Polish descent and living in Australia, is something of a Catch 22, because whilst I love snow, I never get to see it (the real stuff)... so I just pine for it when the temperature is around 40 degrees C...

I love snow. I love winter in general. I love the cold, I love the way the world smells when it snows, I love the sound it makes under your shoes, I like the way cold air feels on your face...

Sadly, it hardly ever gets this cold here in Ireland. I used to love winter in Germany (if it did get cold enough) and I simply adored winter in Canada (Montreal)

I used to think it was tolerable, but the instant I graduated from high school (killing the chance of getting a "snow day") I realized the actual truth:
I hate winter and all that's associated with it, including snow.

Snow would be okay, if it did it at 100 degrees F, which is when it would actually be an improvement to have some cooling. Unfortunately it only snows when it's already miserably cold! So, bah.
