In the South it's hot as hell, literally. The South is where Satan goes for his summer vacation (I'm not implying that the South is a bad place. It's just hot). However, there is the coast. Too bad that everyone loves the coast. I always liked the smell of the ocean at night.

I love the sounds of summer evenings. I like the whirring of little insects and the summer frogs. It's also cooler in the evenings, though not by much. We sit out on our back balcony and chat, have a few drinks and listen to the summer's natural orchestra and watch the heat lightning.

Now it's the thunderstorms that summer brings that get me. Like many people on this forum, there is nothing I love more than a thunderstorm. Not only is it aesthetically pleasing, it also just cleans the atmospere. Living close to a major city and all, a clean atmosphere in the summer is pretty handy. It's a little dangerous, but I like to watch a storm come in, right before it gets bad, and watch the lightning. Once, the hairs on your body start to rise, you should probably go inside.

The one other thing that I don't like about summer is that you don't get a good night view of the sky, and I think that's due to haze (if it's something else, feel free to explain). I love a good night's view of the celestial realm. It's beautiful in the winter, but summer, it's too hazy and you never get a good view.
