  Seasons of Bergen, Norway:

  December - February: Cold and dark and wet season. Stock up on antidepressants, good food, “Hygge”-paraphenelia, asthma medication and remain indoors.

  March - mid-July: Cold and green season.

  Mid-July: Summer!!!

  Mid-July - August: “pretend it is still summer”-season. Yes, we can grill and drink beer in the garden dammit just put on an extra jacket.

  June - August: Wet and windy season.

  September - November: Soggy cold season. Shoes and jackets go to the Drying Rack, not on thr regular rack.

    Damn, that sounds a lot like Don’t Starve Together seasons. How do you handle the human-size mosquitoes during the wet season though? 🤔

    Seasons in Texas:

    June 5-October 25th: fuck you it’s 100+° F / 38° C. Most non-native plants die if they receive direct sunlight all day. It’s 85°F / 30°C at night.

    October 26th - December 10th: fuck you it’s 90° F / 32° C but also 40°F / 5°C in the morning; you’d better have 2 sets of clothes for the day

    Dec 11th - Feb 28th: actually decent weather

    March 1st - May 1: it’s getting hotter but also raining a lot so it’s muggy but the weather is still tolerable sometimes

    May 2 - June 4: Hot and humid, sensory nightmare, air outside feels like your lungs have been filled with a damp blanket. 95+% humidity at all times.

  Seasons of Lahore, Pakistan (imo):

  • Mid-December to February: chilly weather, often between 4-15 degrees Celsius, pretty mild compared to the rest of the year
  • March: first spring, plants are noticeably becoming more alive, flowers are blooming, but temperatures are rapidly increasing. Around this time I set my heat pump to cooling mode
  • April to July: first part of summer, very dry, heatwaves start to happen. Temperature is around 28-40 degrees usually
  • July to early September: second part of summer, around as hot as the first part but monsoons start to happen
  • September: second spring, ofc similar to the first but temperatures start to drop.
  • Mid-September to November: the smoggy season. Pretty moderate temperatures (10-25 degrees), but there is way too much air pollution. A lot of it is due to farmers burning their stalks around this time. I set my heat pump to heating mode around the latter half of this season

    Why call it 2nd spring? I though the more used name is autumn

      In the video, the creator (talking about the seasons where they live, in Southern Coastal California) states that instead of saying “spring” and “autumn”, they call both seasons “nice”, because they are indistinguishable. I’m using the same rationale, basically.
