Remember when spring was a thing? Not so much this year. Chances are things heated up really quickly in your corner of the country, and you went from winter coat to tank and shorts with barely a single second to spare for a light jacket. Sure, the surprising sweltering heat can be a pain to deal with and "sweat-drenched" is not always a good look, but there is plenty to be thankful for with things heating up so soon. Here are 15 reasons we should be glad the sun is out in full force.
15. There is something magical hiding underneath people's shirts.
14. That's right, certain parts of the world - it's ab season.

13. It's the season of glorious abs that spent all winter hiding and now get to roam the world freely.
12. And for real, it's 9 billion degrees outside. A shirt is just a barricade between you and happiness.
11. Here's a somewhat grimy Bradley Cooper to demonstrate the full extent of just how shirtless you can be as you wander betwixt meadows and streams.

10. And this is just the dance we all do when we hear the jingle of the ice cream truck.
9. May everyone's summer be as sexy as Henry Cavill playing a confused Superman apparently discovering socks for the first time.

8. Is it truly a trip to the beach until you've stripped yourself of your tank like the most majestic sea god?

7. Hell yeah, you're hot. As in very sexy and probably uncomfortably warm.
6. Still baking in that summer sun? Just take it all off! You'll save money on new summer fashions if you're not wearing a shred of clothing!

4. You can wake up thinking, "Oh my lord, it's so disgustingly hot in my room that I can't move," or you can wake up thinking, "Clothing is silly and I can conquer today."
3. A/C is great, but so is this guy.
