Climate Battle: Puerto Aisén, Chile vs. Tofino, Canada (warm, record, rainfall)

[deneb78]

Which would you choose?

I think I'd go for Puerto Aisén.. record lows are milder.

I'll go with Tofino for the "dryer" summers. Looks more prone to arctic outbreaks as well.

I think I will go with Tofino, just. Summers are a little warmer and probably sunnier. Both are miserable hellholes though.

[Flight Simmer]

I honestly don't know..... maybe Puerto Aisen for having less rainfall

[tom77falcons]

Neither climate has a decent summer for me. Winter not too bad in either place.

Tofino

Neither, both horribly wet. Might choose one if sunshine differs significantly.

[Patricius Maximus]

Tofino for me. It's more continental than Puerto Aisen, can get colder in winter, and the rainfall pattern is more uneven.

[sulkiercupid]

Tofino, has a slightly warmer and drier summer which would make it a bit more tolerable imo.

Tofino

"Surfing capital of Canada"

That other town in Chile has very mild record lows but
I noticed a record low of -1c (30f) in January (their July)
yikes, that's not so good

Tofino has rainy winters but summers aren't too bad,
good for surfing (in a wetsuit of course)
