Meccabanks

This climate has the summers of Mecca and the winters of Fairbanks (roughly). I did make the overall precipitation pattern like it is in Fairbanks and the increased rainfall is due to the higher evaporation rate.


Fairmeccabanks

As the name implies, Fairmeccabanks is far more comfortable as it has the winters of Mecca and the summers of Fairbanks. Not much was changed from those climates except for a small monsoon in spring.

Feel free to rate them too.

I rate Meccabanks an F+ as it is just too hot in summer. The + is for weather that isn't too boring.

Fairmeccabanks gets a D-. It's too dry (a BSh/steppe climate) but the temps are barely acceptable. It does look mostly comfortable for most of the year though.

Fairmeccabanks is gorgeous and gets a straight A.

On the other hand Meccabanks is comfortable only in late April/May and September/early October (IMO) and has summers that even I find way too hot - not even talking about its dreary winters. Only the shoulder seasons bump it up to D.

Easy choice, but nice idea.

Fairmeccabanks looks pretty nice, B+. Less rainfall and more sunshine needed for a higher grade.

Meccabanks. Above 85, I don't really care what the temperature is; it's just hot. At least I'll see some winter weather.
