More Music In the Street
Yeah as the temperature goes up, car windows go down and everyone's annoying beats start to mingle into a cacophony of general noise in the street.

The Street Vendor's Fruit Actually Looks Fresher
I don't know how the street vendor manages to sell the same kind of SEASONAL fruits throughout the year, Jan - Dec. But once the weather gets warmer, I'm actually tempted to buy fruit from the local vendor rather than quickly walking past while he tries to hawk his goods.

The Streets Start to Smell Raunchy Again
In cold weather, you can actually walk around the city without the smell of unwashed bodies (let your imagination wander on the various smells that can be associated there), the smell of hot garbage and the acrid smell of the street vendor's smoke mixing with the general smell of NYC heat. But fast-forward to the warmth/heat of late spring and all of the summer...and you're actually dodging in and out of stores just to give your nose a break from the flora and fauna that is NYC.

Iced Coffees Are Becoming More Appealing
When it's lower than 50 degrees, I have no real desire to drink ice cold coffee. There's something about 20 degree weather that just makes you not want to defy logic and drink a frigid, ice cold coffee. But, as the temperature rises, it's time for me to start drinking frappacinos and traditional iced coffees.

I Can't Find A Seat At The Park
I've been graced with the opportunity where all of my past and present jobs have been located near some pretty choice parks (Madison Park, Bryant Park, and Herald Sq/Greeley Sq.). Now during the chilly months, it's almost a shopper's paradise of choice seats. Once it gets warmer, everyone and there mother does the Spring/Summer/Early Fall dance called "B*tch get up and give me that seat". Ahhh let the dancing begin.

More Obvious Fashion Offenses
Hey, in the Fall/Winter, you could be a total don't and only the people in your office or home would know that you couldn't dress your way out of a paper bag. But in the Spring/Summer, the jacket comes off...and you become fodder for the unyielding black bar. :)

Screaming Children Everywhere!
Yup, it's time for the summer day camps to descend upon the five boroughs. It's probably one of the rare moments when I say that children are adorable (and yes, I do want to have kids some day). It's just cute seeing the little kids walking in lines of 2, holding hands, with their day camp leaders. :)

Outdoor Patios and Rooftop Parties are Starting Up Again!
Probably one of my favorite NYC warm weather traditions include roof top parties over at my friends' spot in Williamsburg and outdoor eateries all over the city. Nothing makes you feel like it's summer in the city more than eating outside. In a city that's known for ridiculous hustle and bustle, it's nice to have the opportunity to relax for a bit.

Doggies on Parade!
Now that it's warmer, dog owners take their favored pooches out for walks everywhere in the city. And thanks to the whole NYC=Dog Lover concept, you can pretty much take your dog into almost every store/patio cafe out there. :)
