Does the weather change your mood?

Absolutely. Nothing better than a good rainy day when you can be inside  .

How ODD....I love rainy days too! Before the internet, it used to be my favorite time to clean because I knew no one would come over and bug in the middle of something. I also like real cold days.

Rainy days are more quiet. I like that. And are a bit more reflective, because of the fact you are barely bothered by what is happening outside, for some reason.
However, if you have to be outside for some reason, those days are not too great; cycling for an hour in the rain is really draining.

I use rain as an excuse NOT to leave my house. I can't wait until I'm retired and will only have to go out every couple of weeks for food and errands.

I used to like the rain when I was into mountain biking but now it's just depressing, especially here since it rains pretty much all winter long.

You love rainy days? I know just the place for you. How do you feel about wind?

Living in New England you get to experience all types of weather. I do think that the weather does play a small part in your mood.

Paris has long springs and long automns. Springs however are rather dark, rainy and cold.
Rainy days make me sleepy, but I don't dislike them totally. I love nature, I love walking in the park, I love jogging, so I adore the sun. Nice weather actually puts me in the mood to clean up my house and I am much more efficient at it because I want to go outside to enjoy the nice weather.
However, a nice strong raing, even a storm, staying up inside, curled up in bed, reading... that's nice too. We don't have heavy rains here. A few drops, then it stops, then it goes on again... It's cold too :evil: .

I woke up this morning to a white Christmas, which is unusual. I can't remember the last time we had snow in March.
