The perks of winter:
- it is easier to keep warm during winter than it is to keep cool in the summer
- get to wear more clothings which means more pockets to carry things
- all the hell spawned insects go into hibernation
- everything layered in a blanket of snow glistens and sparkles.
- can build stuff with snow so easily
- unpleasant people are deterred or avoid going out as they are bitter about the snow so less likely to encounter them in the winter.
- the weaklings rely more on help as they are not strong enough for winter
- can do more exercising without overheating
You forgot one perk that I really like.
The snow is sound dampening, everything is just much quieter in winter (as an added benefit to there just being less noise generating things going on)
