Well they are classified as a tundra as no month averages over 10C and trees can't grow there.

Lugano. Prince Edwards islands is too bland year round.

Excellent find deneb. Very interesting.

As for answering the poll, I think it's obvious I pick Lugano.

[Jas182]

Summers much better I Lugano, it's sunnier and much better overall. I chose Lagano!

The current results are now 1 against 20. Who are these cold lovers?

[dunno what to put here]

Lugano, of course. The other climate has no redeeming features.

I know there are quite a few people on here who don't like hot summers and Lugano can get some pretty hot days.

Lugano isn't even the warmest city for its latitude, in fact:

Just goes to show that in climate, latitude is often useless in predicting climate.

Lugano. Oceanic and coolness are great, but I want some kind of summer. Seasons are important.

I'm a cold lover but mostly between November and March. But since i want to have a real as well summer though the choice is obvious Lugano.

Another plus, i haven't been there yet but since its very close to the Alp chain it probably sees frequent thunderstorms during the summer months, looking at that rainfall.
