Why not also name fine spells (anticyclonic)? I suggest flowers:
Aster
Bluebell
Candytuft
Daisy
Evening Primrose
Freesia

Arguments would ensue about impacts.
What about sunburn in summer and frosty roads in winter?

"Arguments would ensue about impacts. What about sunburn in summer and frosty roads in winter?"
Very true, Len, but I would turn the argument upside down. Slightly convoluted reasoning.
While storms might be a nuisance for most people, there are those who might enjoy them: kite surfers, anglers taking advantage of abnormal river flows. And indeed at least one airline pilot who liked the challenge of a strong crosswind - not so sure though about my passengers!
So although an anticyclone would be appreciated by most people, there are hazards such as Len mentions that would not be enjoyed by a proportion of the population.

There are ice and heat health warnings that cover at least some aspects of these hazards. I like the idea, though :)
