Bumping this so the bottom part of my post #298 doesn't get ignored.

All-time records are 80 (27) and 18 (-8).

How'd I do? I'd give it an obvious F, personally, but hey, to each his/her own, right?

Now I'd like to see how well you guys know my climate tastes
F. No doubt. Miserable and awful.

What do you mean? You've already posted your ideal climate countless times.

No, the spring and the autumn are the most humid seasons, and the maximums between January and September have a difference of 4C. Why would I want seasons and cold winters or very hot summers? That's definitely the most pleasurable climate to live. No cold and not hot never. If I want seasons I would travel to Chicago or Detroit. But we are talking about dream liveable climates. No need of a/c or heating even a single day of the year... Sunshine hours above 3000. It's perfect for me!

I just wanted to have a lighthearted game to see how well everyone knew my climate tastes and maybe who knew them best.

LOL

I want more rain than that, though - maybe 80-100 mm each month would be closer to ideal. 22*C is a little warm for me at night in the winter, though - I'd prefer something more like 27/18 in the winter and 31/22 in the summer. There's got to be some seasonal variation in there - if every day's the same, it gets awfully boring!

23.5 is a great latitude, though, and 250 hours of sun sounds great as well; 28*C is also a good high temperature no matter the time of year. I'd give this climate a B - a bit boring and dry, but hey, at least it doesn't get down to -10*F with a wind chill every winter!

Lol. From 27/18 to 31/22 is still god awfully boring it wouldn't really feel like there's variation tbh.

Well, at least it isn't a super freaky ultra-continental climate with -70ºC in the winter and +70ºC in the summer

Anyway, I do get your point - if it were the same exact weather every single day, it would be extremely boring, even if it was perfect weather by its own merits. That's why my ideal climate sees plenty of good storms, and all-time records of 105 (41) and 50 (10) with a good deal of standard deviation (just last Thursday the high was 89.2, which is over six degrees above average).

To me, though, a slight boredom factor is very much preferable to freezing or sweating your butt off half the year.

I was bored, so I did this:



This place is located beside a large bay (twice size of San Francisco Bay), which is shaped like U. The bay faces east, though. This place lies on elevation from sea level to 90 m/295 feet. Also it is not tropical and lies between latitude 40° to 30° north.

So, what kind of climate this place would be? Mediterranean or humid subtropical? Also, rate it. Actually, it is not good enough for me, though.
