My mood depends entirely on the weather. Sunshine — and I'm in a good mood. Rain — perfect, I absolutely adore the rain! I used to love jumping, as if by accident, into puddles in my rubber boots when I lived in Saint Petersburg, where it feels like the rain never, ever ends… I never owned an umbrella…
They say that when you arrive in a new city, you bring the weather with you. When I first came to Saint Petersburg for a month, surprisingly, it didn't rain a single time during that whole month. Instead, the sun was shining the entire time! Meanwhile, at the same time in my hometown, which is usually so sunny, there was a total downpour — it rained nonstop. Rivers of water, over a meter deep, were flowing through the streets.
I remember another rain-related cataclysm. One time, my niece invited me to her birthday party. I was running late. A very heavy rain started, but despite the weather, I took a taxi and went to her place. When I arrived, my niece wasn't even ready to greet guests yet — the table wasn't fully set, and she met me in her bathrobe with her hair undone and without makeup. I was feeling anxious about being late. But imagine my surprise when I realized I was the very first guest. And no one could come until she had finished all the party preparations, because there was an ABSOLUTELY TORRENTIAL downpour outside. It was mystical! I told my niece, «You're a witch!»
Winter, with its frost and snow, is magnificent! That kind of weather reminds me of the New Year or Christmas miracles you always see in the movies. Hot weather? No problem. The only thing I can't stand is when it's windy and cold. So, I guess you could say the weather gives me a great mood about 330 days a year.
It's amazing, but the weather on my birthday is always amazing. My birthday is on the first day of spring. I'm 44 years old, and on that day, spring almost always arrives, and the meltwater streams start flowing. I only remember two birthdays when there were my very unloved weather — gloomy and windy. And this year, surprisingly, for the first time in my life, the weather was actually wintry, like New Year's. Spring only came the very next day. Maybe Spring got confused, thought it was a leap year, and just decided to show up a day late.
Моё настроение зависит от погоды. Солнце- хорошее настроение. Дождь- отлично, обожаю дождь! Очень любила прыгать , как бы случайно , по лужам в резиновых сапогах, когда жила в Санкт-Петербурге, где дождь не заканчивается никогда… У меня никогда не было зонта…
Говорят, когда ты приезжаешь в другой город, ты привозишь с собой погоду… Когда Я приехала в Санкт-Петербург в первый раз на месяц, на удивление, за этот месяц в этом городе ни разу не было дождя, а наоборот светило все время солнце! Зато в моем родном и обычно солнечном городе был просто потоп, дождь шел не останавливаясь… По городу текли реки воды глубиной больше метра…
Вспоминается ещё один катаклизм, связанный с дождём… Однажды меня пригласила племянница на свой день рождения… Я задерживалась. Начался очень сильный дождь, но не смотря на погоду, я приехала к ней в гости на такси… В тот момент, когда я пришла, моя племянница ещё была не готова встречать гостей, до конца не был сервирован стол, племянница меня встретила в халате и без прически… Я переживала по поводу моего опоздания… Но каково было моё удивление, когда я поняла, что я была первым гостем… И никто больше не смог придти, пока племянница не завершила все приготовления к празднику, потому что на улице шёл ОЧЕНЬ СИЛЬНЫЙ ДОЖДЬ. Вот такая вот мистика! Я сказала племяннице , что она- ведьма!
Зима и мороз со снегом- великолепно! Такая погода ассоциируется у меня с новогодними, рождевственскими чудесами, которые часто показывают в фильмах… Жара- не страшно… Не люблю только когда ветрено и холодно. Получается из-за погоды у меня 330 дней в году отличное настроение….
Удивительная погода обычно бывает в день моего рождения, в первый день весны . Мне 44 года, и в этот день почти всегда приходит весна и текут ручьи… я помню только два дня моих рождения, в которые была моя нелюбимая погода-мрачная и ветренная. И в этом году на удивление , в первые в моей жизни погода была зимняя, новогодняя. И только на следующий день пришла весна… Возможно весна ошиблась, подумав, что сейчас високосный год а потому задержалась на день…

We don’t normally capitalize “spring,” but since you’re anthropomorphizing it here, it works. :-)

Wow, you've revealed an interesting fact about the date of the first day of spring in the USA! Thank you! Yes, my birthday was on March 1st.
Also, thanks for the corrections! 😊

"Meanwhile" means "at the same time," so you don't need both.

You have used this sentence pattern throughout. On the positive side, that adds consistency to a long post. On the negative side, it can get repetitive. In a short sentence like this one, I think you could omit the commas to change up the pattern, but the grammar police might disagree.
So, I guess you could say the weather [gives me a great mood] about 330 days a year. So, I guess you could say the weather [gives me a great mood] about 330 days a year.
"Gives me a great mood" is not idiomatic. We don't usually use the verb "give" to identify what influences our moods. Some options are: lift, lighten, or brighten. For example, "lifts my mood/spirits" or "brightens my mood"
It's [amazing], but the weather on my birthday is always [amazing]. It's [amazing], but the weather on my birthday is always [amazing].
You could improve this sentence by avoiding the repetition of the key word. It's a good challenge to think of more precise and interesting words to use here. For example "uncanny" and so on.
I only remember two birthdays when [there were my very unloved weather] — gloomy and windy. I only remember two birthdays when [there were my very unloved weather] — gloomy and windy.
"There were my very unloved weather" is not idiomatic. Also, "weather" is singular, so the verb should be "was."
Options keeping "my" include:
"when we had my least favorite weather" or "when we had my most hated weather."
Other options involve restructuring the sentence: "when the weather was unpleasant for me."
