Atlanta. No contest.

EDIT: In winter, Melbourne, but by a hair. Because Atlanta does get warm waves where temps would reach in the early 20s (Celsius) here and there - This rarely happens in Melbourne...20C+ days in winter would be considered newsworthy there. But yet, Atlanta is also prone to severe cold fronts that lower the highs to 5C and below (if I'm not mistaken) - This also wouldn't happen in Melbourne.

Easily Atlanta, Melbourne is just a warm oceanic climate.

EDIT: For winter, Melbourne by a little. While it can't get as warm as Atlanta, it is much more subtropical feeling on average at the time.

You should've asked that instead.

I think you can still edit your question...

Well I've already voted considering the whole year. I would say Melbourne in winter only.

Now the poll doesn't look as lopsided

Melbourne. Summers aren't bad, and winters are much milder.


Does Atlanta look like that in the middle of winter: https://goo.gl/maps/q4BBDbGFUZR2


No! And you won't see palm trees like that in Atlanta either.

One thing to mention, Australia doesn't have deciduous trees (naturally). We grow evergreen trees (eucalyptus, for one), and they make the environment seem "green" all year round.
