Obviously this only applies to people in the northern hemisphere, but I guess anybody in the south can just go off their past anecdotes.

Where I live it usually rains from August to December, then snows in January, then rains again from February to mid-May. Right now we've been getting highs of 75F (~23C) (yes, go ahead and laugh Arizonans) and I've just been dying inside. I have my fan constantly on and my car's A/C is on literally the coldest temperature. I love the rain here and it hasn't rained for an actual month. We had one (!) overcast day in the past like 3 weeks. I just really wanna wake up to rain and 45F (~7C) again. I know I've only got a month and a half til that starts to become a reality, but it's just passing by so slowly.

It doesn't help that I'm pretty far north, so the sun has been setting around 8:30 PM with last light as late as 9:30, and then rising at like 5 in the morning. Honestly my favorite time of year is when I get home from work and the sun has already set.

I live in a similar climate but it's a little warmer than where you're at now. Actually summers are the only time I don't feel like I'm suffering, since as I've grown older I'm cold all of the time. I was just in Alaska last weekend and it was chilly and rainy. Perhaps that's more your speed, though it does stay light pretty late.
