Atlanta.

Seattle's winters are far too cloudy and its summers are too cool.

ATL summers are like Jakarta (urban, hot, humid) but Seattle's are like Lembang's drier (cool, dry, and moderate/quite sunny) so Seattle

This is a hard one. Atlanta is a winter climate brother, so the winters will be good. Awfully hot in summer though.

Seattle is decent for about 5 months, but it's winter, is like Dunedin on acid.

I will need longer to consider .... I shall give my decision after sunset.
Atlanta winters are nothing like yours! your winters are very stable while Atlanta has 20°C/9°C days and 4°C/-6°C days. (and a much lower record low)

seattle for me, no doubt. seattle has a reputation of being depressing and cloudy and (suicide capital?) but its kind of hard to see why looking at the stats.

i mean yea sure the winters are depressing but the summers look beautiful. and its stable. (or at least more so than Atlanta's climate)

I think he was referring to averages and not extremes.

Hmmm, I didn't expect Seattle to win with such a big margin here.
I voted for Atlanta.

I think many people prefer cool, wet days over hot and humid days.
