Explanation:

There is a hormone (I forgot it's name) that is released when triggered by sunlight. This hormone makes you happier and thus it is an inherent part of human nature that they are happier when the sun is shining. Therefore, biologically and psychologically, YOU are wierd if you think rainy weather (when it's usually dark cos it's cloudy) is NICE [img]tongue.gif[/img] because it must mean that your body is not manufacturing enough of this hormone. Why do you think people go on holiday to places sunnier and warmer than their home?

Honestly, I like sunny weather (not as much as rainy does but well). But a sunny day with no wind is a killer. There has to be a slight breeze at least. [/QUOTE]Actually I agree there! I phrased my statement wrong. I love a slight breeze on a hot day [img]tongue.gif[/img] But when I say wind, I mean WIND! a lil breeze is nice. WINDY WIND is 'orrible [img]tongue.gif[/img] Even in the warth is not nice. When on holiday in tunisia the wind was high and all the sand was blown into you legs at highspeeds! And it REALLY hurts!

I'm sure it has something to do with that fact that while now we have cars and so on, they are very recent inventions, and historically rainy weather is very unpleasant re getting out and about. I like rain myself but I don't particularly enjoy wandering about in it when I'm not looking to get wet. Not to mention that urban living is also much more common than it used to be and people used to be predominantly rural dwellers who had large or small farms and working in the rain, while good for the crops, isn't very 'nice'.

Though the psychological answers are also plausible as well

not to mention that you are more succeptable to cold viruses when the weather is "bad".

Personally, I think that any weather conditions that are not life threatening are nice as long as the temperature remains above freezing (and that lightening and thunder are cool when they are at a distance).

Beaumanoir,
When the Santa Anna winds hit Tucson, AZ it provides for some serious maneuverability challenges but being able to "stand" while your face is literally just inches from the ground is a crack up. [img]graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
