Which climate do you prefer? Pacific North West or the Front Range? (snow, hot)

[hello_im_sean]

Hello all, I was wondering for those of you who have traveled the US which region do you prefer? For weather and it's impact on the surroundings do you prefer the Cloudy, mild, and wet Pacific North West? Or the dry and high Colorado Front Range? Any reason to pick on over the other? I'm trying to get a feel for the appeal of each area. Thanks!

Pacific Northwest. Wet enough and it's rarely hot.

Anybody care to break it down a bit on why you'd prefer one over the other? Curious here, thanks guys.

PNW, for milder winters and more rainfall. That said, I wish the overall climate was a bit warmer and sunnier.

PNW, also for the milder winters.

Hard choice. PNW is nice in summer, but too cludy, wet and mild in winter. Front Range is alright in winter, but uncomfortable in summer (but manageable with A/C) and though it is not consistent, there is great potential for snow and cold. I'll go for Front Range. I'd much rather have a Rocky Mountain climate like Climax, Colorado. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Climax,_Colorado#Climate

I live in the PNW but I would take the Front Range Climate to live in....PNW climate is good for growing things though.

I'd actually choose PNW, because the Winters of the Front Range aren't cold enough to compensate quite hot summers. And although I love winters, year-round wet and cool/mild climates please me quite well. And if i missed winter, there'd still be the possibility to drive up into the mountains.

Front Range for me! Love the sunshine and snow. You just don't get that as much in the PNW

Climate wise, front range would offer more variety and excitement so I voted for it.
