It's different, winters are a lot colder where I live. I'd like London or Vancouver's winters

My current climate is quite decent but I would drop summer and winter temperatures by several degrees C. 25+°C needs to be a once per year miracle and all winters need to be cold and snowy, no exceptions. Currently debacles like the 2013/14 three week "winter" are still possible here. Spring and autumn are fine.

I would also make summers cloudier, 350+ h this July was duller than any fully overcast sky I've seen.

I'm pretty happy with the climate here, but if I was being picky I'd prefer the average highs in winter to be a couple of degrees higher (the miniums are fine) & maybe some rain to fall during the summer months...

Since my dream climate has about the same annual temperature as my current climate, only difference being variation, the temperatures are right twice a year. Other than that, Portland is too wet for 3 4ths of the year and lacks the summer thunderstorms I would enjoy. My dream climate actually has more rain than Portland, but spread across 47 fewer days. I don't hate Portland's climate, so I'll say I like it part of the year for those oh so appropriately chilly but not frigid Halloweens.

I honestly have to wonder why anyone would want to live in a tropical climate - it's just heat, humidity, bugs, and occasional hurricanes year-round. My dream climate is about fifty degrees colder than my current climate. Make that fahrenheit or celsius, it doesn't really matter.

We live in a place that stays fairly cloudy for good periods....this is good for me because I hate direct sunlight.

Our winters almost never see snow, which for me is a negative. It just doesn't get cold enough here.

Our summers used to be pretty mild, but they've grown much warmer and sunnier over the 15 years.....much to my chagrin.

My dream climate would be cloudy almost all the the time, but with longer cold seasons and clearly defined Fall and Winter scenes.

Summer I could really give a crap about because I'm no heat lover. It would be fine by me if summers never saw temps higher than 70 degrees.

Anchorage, Alaska is about as close as I will get to living in my ideal climate. We'll be up there by the end of my son's school year

It's too hot in the summer here, but from November to April it's very nice weather for the most part.
