Yes a labour of love, everyone said it was 'purposeless' but I enjoyed it. When I was 6 or 7 I drew a map of the world by heart and the teacher thought I was some kind of genius or something. Always had a fascination with maps and geography, and by extension, weather and travel!

I think a lot of my reputation for being smart in school was because I knew all the world capitals, had a lot of general knowledge and read a lot. Academically I was average, but did excell in Geography, History.etc no surprise lol.

I was the same in primary school - always loved the world and geography and I guess that's where my love of weather came from too.

C-

Summers on the warm side, but not drastically different from where I live. Winters look fairly pleasant. Rainfall is sufficient. Not ideal, but not terrible either.

When I was little I used to draw a crude map of the US and make up weather forecasts...similar to the maps that the weather channel had in the mid to late 90s. Ah memories.

C- Looks a lot like my hometown climate's except with slightly cooler winters. So, Byron's winters are nice in the sense that they are comfortable, but they don't really qualify as winter for me, and the summers are horrid, hehe.

BTW, I also used to (and do) draw maps of the world from memory and knew the capitals of the world, and so on and so forth. I have an imaginary city located here in Argentina named Huenquealo, whose climate I posted in the forum for rating. But most importantly, long ago I created a whole new world with all the made-up countries, languages, and of course climate charts of the main cities. When I have time I go back to them and invent some little more.

As to your map, it's really detailed, and that you did with Paint?? Incredible. Hard work there.

Sim City should develop a game with more weather options. The only current one offered is a tornado.
