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.
You plant corn early as you can so it will mature before the first frost. We plant corn as early as we can to keep all the bugs from eating it. Our plant dates for corn are 2/15 to 5/15. Wait past 3/30 and you better be spaying it and spraying it hard.
Good weather to some is devastating to others. It's all what you are use to and prepared for.
