Let's craft our IDEAL SUMMER weather (not your current location's climate) .
How would you prefer your summers to look like according to this criteria?
A) Average maximum temperature
B) Average minimum temperature
C) Highest temperature
D) Lowest temperature
E) Minimum high
F) Maximum low
G) Precipitation days per month
H) Thunderstorm days per month
I) Rainfall average per month
J) Percentage of possible sunshine
K) Highest dewpoint
L) Lowest dewpoint
M) Average dewpoint during daily maximum
N) Max rainfall in a single day
O) Any other criteria you want to include (such as summer frosts or hurricane data, etc). Mine will be summer SST since my ideal climate would be on the beach.
A) 85F
B) 70F
C) 100F
D) 60 F
E) 77F
F) 77F
G) 8 days per month
H) 7 days per month
I) About 4 inches per month
J) 70 percent
K) 75F
L) 50F
M) 68F
N) around 3 inches in a strong thunderstorm

Thought you preferred the summers of California's central valley with average highs around 35C, lows around 18C without a cloud in sight for 4 months and only picked tropical climates in climate battles to avoid any sort of "winter".

Summer temperatures in my current climate are okay by my preferences, I just wish sunshine was a bit higher and thunderstorms more frequent (not necessarily Florida or Midwest frequency but continental Europe frequency like 20-30 days a year, plus getting thunderstorms every day might mean they get less interesting).
