I think though that a fairly diverse range of climates have been rated here, including many interesting ones chosen from all over -- tropical, subtropical, maritime, Mediterranean, continental, polar.
The idea, I think, is to see and understand the nuances of each unique climate (amount, frequency and distribution of precipitation, sunshine and temperatures, and occasionally other factors such as wind) on this third rock from the sun, and consider how it fits with your personal preferences.
The posters here all seem quite knowledgeable about weather/climate and I've learned quite a lot from the stats posted for cities and places that are new to me, or I wasn't very aware about before. It makes me think about my own experiences with the climates (although very few) I've encountered and how much out there I haven't.
Well said. Btw, Toronto is a great city and every time I've been there had a great time. Climate there is not as bad as people claim. I've been there in June with great summer weather and February with really cold. The city is so cool and interesting I never noticed the bad weather features. There are many other aspects to whether a locale thrives besides climate. London is amazing and a vibrant, thriving city with what many people would consider a bad climate. Australia on the other hand has only climate going for it. Just kidding.
Being a warm (as opposed to hot) climate lover I tend to give very hot and humid climates grades almost as low as cold climates. Rainfall and sunshine are just as important factors as temperature.
Haha, yes these polls are definitely a waste of time. Yet sadly, i have participated in plenty of them. This is probably an indication that i need to get either a hobby or a girlfriend.

I have a major hobby, a full time job, a kid, a wife, and I STILL manage to waste a lot of time here somehow! I post regularly on three of the C-D forums, and semi-regularly on a couple of other ones. And every once in a while, I'll pop into a forum I don't visit regularly (or even semi-regularly) and read and sometimes even post. There should be a smiley with nerd glasses for me to post here now. LOL!

LOL! Spending time on the internet used to be even more geeky, say a decade back, right? Before the digital became more of an indispensible part of our lives, especially with the rise of social media and whatnot.
That said, posting in a forum about an obsession like weather is still seen as kind of geeky.
Anyways, back to the topic of weather.
