Oh, how could I forget.

chicagogeorge: extremophile that wants the hottest summers possible and the coldest winters possible. Probably wants to live in a climate that's even more continental than Chicago.

dunno said one of the largest in the world not Europe. Yes I did have an idea, but that was kinda my point; outside of France and London, Europe doesn't have much of a Jewish population.

It is in the top 100 globally for its Jewish population. How is that not one of the largest in the world, when you consider how many cities actually exist? Yes, it pales in comparison to US cities but that was not my point at all, and you know it. It isn't a game of one upmanship.

Eastern Europe has many Jewish people, like in Budapest. It's embarrassing I think, that many West European countries have less Jewish people than somewhere like Argentina or even Panama, which are famous for being strictly Catholic nations. It shows the ****ty way some countries have treated Jewish people throughout the centuries

Well, NOAA says so.

NWS JetStream - Thunderstorms

And if you scroll down to "Normals, means, and extremes" on these pages, you'll see that Wilmington averages 46.4 days per year while Louisville averages 46.7.

You are right, I like Ålesund

I don't like the whole of Scandinavia, though.

Kiruna, as long as many other cities, is too cold for me.

Italians are 'Macaronis' and Norwegians 'Cods'.
oh yeah, I know that. I wish we had a word for Finns

Looking at the stats on Wikipedia, I like it, but the rain is too heavy. I prefer it to be in the 700-1300 mm range.
