Last week, we asked you to choose the most wonderful time of year to get out and explore the city. The results were clear — WStoday readers have two seasons they like most. Who do you agree with?

Fall — 44%

“Changing leaves and the aroma of a fireplace”
“Cooler, less humid (hopefully), beautiful scenery everywhere!”

Spring — 43%

“Because the whole city is in bloom!”
“After being cooped up indoors in the winter, it is time to get out and check out the sites.”

Summer — 11%

“Better weather, parks, and outdoor concerts!”
“Because it’s summer. Summer rocks. Only 6 more months!”

Winter — 2%

“It’s the most wonderful time of the year!!”

Weather you agree with Andy Williams’ 1963 holiday hit or not, winter begins Thursday, Dec. 21 — and January is looking like the coldest month.
