I learned long ago the weather you want is dependent on where you live.
You need snow for summer irrigation and a inch of snow to us is a crippling disease. With over 60 inches of rain a year we dag sure don't need the extra moisture.
I see guys complain they got 6 inches of rain in 2 days and the fields are flooding. All I can think is what would you do if you really got a heavy rain.
We can not grow most fruit trees because we do not get enough chill hours. We do have mild winters (it was 73 yesterday) but spend a day down here when it just quite raining and it is 35 degrees and most of you would want to go back home to your 0 weather. Our summers are brutal.

Good weather to some is devastating to others. It's all what you are use to and prepared for.
