You can only take off so many clothes? The only time I feel the urge to take off my shirt is if I'm playing basketball in that weather. Other than that, I'm sure Phoenix summers are bearable if you just wear a white tee and stay in some shade.
The cold is definitely easier to handle from a practical standpoint, but the heat may be a little bit easier on your mood. Up to a point anyway- too hot can definitely bring out the crazy in you.
One inch of snow so far, near 50 degrees today and an ungodly beautifully perfect winter, Chicago hands down over Phoenix, at least this year, for the weather.

Phoenix Summers (sounds like an adult star, lol) by a mile, for one HUGE reason that hasn't been touched on all that much--the nights. Even if you call the days a wash (I wouldn't; a Phoenix summer day is no picnic but at least I don't have to dress like I'm about to invade Hoth when I leave the house), summer nights in Phoenix are much easier to deal with than Chicago's Winter nights. I don't know how anyone can argue otherwise with a straight face.

Sorry - can't stand the heat.
