Weather is a pretty important factor of the desirability of a city. Some like it hot, some like it cold, and some are in between. I personally like a climate with four, distinct seasons, like St. Louis or New York, but I know i'm not everyone. So, i'd like to get a good consensus of other people's weather preferences.

Miami - Tropical Monsoon Climate http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tropical_monsoon_climate
Hot, humid summers and warm winters. Wet season from May to October, which coincides with hurricane season, and brings often, but brief afternoon thunderstorms.
San Diego has an extremely mild climate w/ little rain and comfortable temps. Never really hot or cold. A bit humid but nothing like the Midwest\ South during summer.
This is how I'd rank them:
1. Miami
2. New Orleans
3. Houston
=4. Atlanta
=4. San Diego
6. Washington D.C.
7. New York City
8. St. Louis
=9. San Francisco
=9. Minneapolis
=9. Seattle
How mild the Winters are is very important to me (I need warmth so Miami would be the best option lol), how hot & humid the Summers are is also very important to me (the first 8 cities [except for SD] all have hot & humid Summers).
