The dominant color in Paris is the grey. 'nuff said!

No way I could live in Paris year round, 50s F in the summer would be torture.

^^ That's only at night, it still gets up to the 70s during the day, even close to 80 during July.

Paris has better summers, New York has better winters. They're about equal to me.

NYC by a wide margin. Better in every aspect, bar one: winter sunshine. I prefer Paris' grey skies at these temps.

About summer nights, the 1981-2010 average low is 60.6°F in July and 60.3°F in August in Paris-Montsouris. So no more of these pesky 50s.

Of course, it's cooler in the suburbs, with 58.5°F and 57.7°F respectively at Orly airport, the station I use.

NYC. Beyond a bit high humidity and total precipitation, its an A climate. To me, perfect temps variation for a 4 seasons climate. Real but no extreme winter and summer. Plus snow, decent average of thunderstorms, and ocassional extreme events, like subtropical hurricanes.

Paris because Hartfordd is too obsessed with eastern US climates.

Does Paris get summer thunderstorms? I like NYCs 4 season climate better but would prefer slightly less humid summers. I don't like humid days over 85 F but love thunderstorms.

Oh well in THAT case

Honestly I would prefer if Paris' summer highs were the lows, especially June. Balmy 72-75F nights are just beautiful.
