Default Whats your favourite type of weather? or which city in the WORLD has the best weather?

Rainy and stormy and about 65F

I have to say Perth has the best climate in the world

Winter temps: Max: 60-70F Min: 40-50F
Summer temps: Max: 75-95F Min: 60-65F

Summer has mostly sunny days with an odd storm
Winter has rainy days with suny breaks in between the wet days

Santa Barbara, CA hands down, 70s all year round, where the warm water meets with the cold water, wineries, beautiful women, unfortunately $500,000 will only get you a one bedroom, ridiculous.

I'll reply to the first part of the question, my favourite weather is hot summers and cold winters where it snows, climates of South Lake Tahoe,CA, Reno,NV or Salt Lake City,UT would be perfect for me.

s/w AZ or Hawaii for me. I like it warm/hot.
No snow or that four seasons stuff either.
Southern CA would be ok but it gets a little too cold for me esp. once you go north of LA.

One of my favorite climates is Albuquerque, NM. Nice, sunny, warm summers (although windy and dusty in spring), cool, crisp, sunny winters with occasional big snowfalls. Gorgeous falls, too.

I love mild to warm weather with some humidity. A climate that is a mix of Honolulu and San Diego would be perfect for me. I love SD weather but it can be a little too cool for me, especially at night in winter. I love Honolulu weather but summers can get a bit warm. Basically 72-80 year round as highs and lows in the mid 60's to low 70's are perfect. Also around 20-25 inches of rain a year.

I think Atlanta has my favorite type of weather. It has four seasons, but not too extreme. Fall and Spring are long and lovely, Winter is short and not too cold, and Summer is hot and steamy with plenty of thunderstorms.
