I don't mind it if I don't have to drive in it.

I used to hate it because I don't ski or snowmobile.
I do love a roll in fresh snow after the sauna - makes you feel ALIVE!
We had a new years party & were up until 5:00 am. Sauna, roll in snow, pool, hot tub, repeat...

I like it now. I just get tired of it about the end of February and March.

usually I don't mind it, but at +3ft so far for the winter, and an average of +10" a week, I'm not liking it. the snowblower is starting to have problems because of the hight of the snowbanks. can't wait for spring, but dread the flooding

We love it; but we don't get so much of it here (Bremerton, WA) that it becomes a real problem. As stated (sort of) above, I'd like it even more if people would slow down.

I'd probably say I loved it to if I didn't have to deal with it for 4 months. I hate those 4x4 drivers too.

Like it for driving, makes it an adventure instead of a chore. Don't like shoveling the drive though, so I don't.

I like it as fresh snow... not frozen white stuff - like a snow cone - after a few days in the teens... nor mushy brown stuff after a few hours of cars driving over it in NYC....
