Summers and winters of New York vs. Seattle vs. San Francisco vs. San Diego for climate (best, better)

[MichaelOrear]

Hello,

I am tired of New York Winters that are awful and freezing and New York summers like the current one which is so hot and humid. Also, the air is so poluted

How do the following cities: Seattle, San Francisco, and San Diego compare to New York City on the following measures:

1. Having milder winters then New York City?

2. Having milder summers then New York City?

3. Having better air quality and less allergies?

Thanks

Don't know about air quality, but neither will be as bad as NY. And San Diego is the mildest city in the country, hands down.

All three will have mild summers and mild winters relative to NYC,

San Diego has the warmest weather. It gets colder as you go North but nothing like New York. All have very mild weather.

Why do you think the Pacific coast is so crowded and expensive? People are moving there in droves

Seattle has the best summer. Between 70 and 80 degrees very little humidity! Springs are unpredictabl. There can either be very wet, dry, or an odd mix of both, Fall and winter are more straight forward. Most of the winter temps dont drop below 40 degrees but ever so often a cold front moves in and will flirt with snow for a few days.

Hmmm I'd prefer most of the seasons in the others compared to NYC, with the exception of Seattle in the winter. I'd prefer NYC winters due to having more sun.

Winter, SF really???
SF winter is grey/drizzly often.
Best winter is EASILY San Diego... not even close.

San Diego's Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall are all pretty much the same save an about 10˚ shift of average temperatures (+/- 70˚) and a little bit of rain in the winter months.

Kind of sad for those of us that like a little more weather variety (and rain especially), but nicely predictable for planning and enjoying outdoor activities comfortably year round. You can basically plan an outdoor wedding or picnic at anytime of the year months from its due date and pretty much count on the weather being delightful

Winter in NY and Summer in San Francisco for me.
