Cities like Kuwait and Phoenix have a stereotypical desert climate (BWh). Same way Brisbane, Hong Kong and Orlando have stereotypical humid subtropical climates (Cfa). Now what climates are rather "unrepresentative" of their Koppen's climate categorization?
I'd start with NYC (Cfa), because of its cold winters. And Sydney for not being as humid as other "true" Cfa climates. Another more obvious one is Broome for its very wet summers and dry "winters", which make it look like a typical tropical wet & dry climate, but yet it still retains its semi-arid title (BSh).
Malta can be very humid, even its dewpoints this past summer were too high, just see flamingGalah! posts in the temp thread (reached 28C, avg like 25-26C last late summer i think - which is atypical for deep tropical rainforests which is typically 22-25C), despite being Med climate

The Airport is in the centre of the island and is a bad example. Flaming galah lives on the coast which is more humid. His average dewpoints are like those on Lampedusa, i would guess. https://weatherspark.com/averages/32...a-Sicily-Italy
The Place in the Mediterranean that i think averages the highest dewpoints, must be the Eastern side of the Turkish Med-Coast. (Warmest Summer SSTs in the Mediterranean) Cities like Iskenderun, Alanya, Anamur, Mersin...
People on here seem to equate Cfb with somewhere like Lerwick or Bergen. They are far too wet and cold to be Cfb in my eyes. Cfb is somewhere like London or Bordeaux.

Wet shouldn't exclude exclude climates from Cfb - there are wetter towns in my area than Bergen, and they are very much Cfb.
Bergen and Lerwick are certainly cool, but their dynamics are much the same as my climate.Splitting Cfb doesn't make much sense from a classification perspective.
London and Bordeaux don't seem that different to Portsmouth.

For a UK climate it's high, but only midrange for Cfb climates in general.
They're (supposedly) oceanic climates and look nothing like it!
