Milan is 'humid subtropical' (Cfa) according to Koppen, same as NYC and DC (though the wording is totally wrong as none of them are remotely subtropical in my eyes). Most of the French overseas territories are in tropical climates.
And there is really no humid subtropical climates in Europe to match Charleston, Savannah, Mobile, New Orleans, Houston, etc.
Northern Marianas
Guam
Puerto Rico
USVI
American Samoa
They are not part of the US, whereas French Guiana and Reunion are part of France, and the EU. That's like me saying that the UK has Mediterranean/tropical and subtropical climates in Gibraltar, Montserrat and Bermuda.
The point I was making originally anyway was that it was not fair to include Alaska and Hawaii and then claim the US has tropical/polar climates, but then exclude similar places for Europe and claim it doesn't have those climate types. All of the climates that Hawaii4evr posted, can be found in Europe/EU.

Okay, so where is this Humid Sub climate in Europe?
You don't get to include one climate in two diff categories.
Malta is bone dry in summer, and only gets 21 inches of rain a year. Sure sounds Med to me.
So where in Europe looks like this?
I was agreeing with you. I just said he had a point about climates being slightly different in different regions, even if classified as the same. For example, the tropical climate of most of Brazil is different from the tropical climate of Aruba.
But I totally agree, Europe has no humid subtropical cities with the same climate/scenery as New Orleans.
I said that nowhere in Europe has a Cfa climate like the deep south (post 142), but Cfa climates are found in Europe in northern Italy, Croatia, Slovenia, parts of Greece and around the Black Sea coasts of Bulgaria, Turkey and Ukraine.
Some people should do more research before they post.
