Best Weather to Wake Up To

You open the curtains and this is what is outside. Twelve mornings, eleven of which have to go.

Weather preference is almost entirely determined by what you have to do that day, and this bracket removes that variable on purpose. Heavy rain is either the best possible morning or a genuine problem depending only on whether you are leaving the house, and with nowhere to be it becomes close to unbeatable for a lot of people. Fog is the one entry that changes the geometry of a place rather than its temperature, turning a familiar street into something you have to pay attention to. Fresh snow does something similar and adds silence on top of it, which is the part people usually mean when they say they like it. Thirty-two mornings are in, photographed rather than described.

The results tend to run against what people claim to want in general. Bright sunshine is the stated favourite almost everywhere and it loses rounds constantly here, because a morning with no obligations rewards weather that gives you a reason to stay exactly where you already are.
