For instance, certain tones in music are associated with certain colors. Which are then, in turn, associated with the weather (and the visual tones of this weather - for instance, sunny = yellow/orange/similar hues).
Has anyone else experienced this sort of thing? Do you have specific "night" songs? Or specific albums you prefer in the summer?

Yup...That is the whole reason I started up art. I thought it was normal, started a thread about it on a forum asking people what colours they saw when they heard certain songs, and they said I had synesthesia. Anyways, I started drawing what I saw and now I have been painting for around two years. My art page is linked in my sig if you're curious. It also sometimes happens with taste and especially smell.
