Fogopolis- Extreme maritime climate that is smothered in fog all year round with no sunny breaks. Maybe 2 or 3 times a year, the residents get a glimpse of the sun peaking through the fog but it's very short lived. Very narrow temperature range and the only precipitation that falls is mist from the fog so precipitation totals are extremely low despite the maritime climate. A typical day produces anywhere between a trace and 0.10 inches in drizzle from the fog and that's it. No heavy or even moderate rain has EVER been recored in Fogopolis. In the entire recorded history, no thunderstorms, snow, hail, or clear skies have ever been recorded. The record for rain in 24 hours is a mere 0.35 inches from very heavy fog drip. It's never warm and never cold enough to snow...just gloomy foggy and chilly and damp all the time with NO variation.



Comfortville
- every day has the exact same high and low temperature with no standard deviation whatsoever. Every day starts off with a morning marine layer than burns off sometime between 8AM and 11AM and the rest of the day is always sunny. No precipitation has ever been recorded.

Comfortville good for my psyche, Fogopolis good for my body cells that need water. Hmmm....pleasant existence with no water around, or gloomy existence but I get to live more than 3 days? Fogopolis it is

Neither because they are both unrealistic.

Use your imagination. Comfortville might be a future climate controlled colony on Mars which the temperatures are controlled to be 70 F all day and 60 F all night and the sun always shines in the dome because there is no clouds in Mars.

Fogopolis might be a "rain shadow" valley equatorial climate in an earth that has been cooled by 50 degrees F due to a new ice age. It gets a lot of fog formation that the sun can't break through but no real "weather systems".
