I like hot summer Mediterranean climates, but LA and California in particular seem to be extreme with trace rainfall for 6 months. In places like Valencia, Barcelona, Athens etc there is still a bit of rainfall during summer, and the real dry season only really lasts 3 months.

Of course, different people have different tastes, I just expressed that personally I don't like hot summer climates (even places like Crimea are already too hot for me in summer).

Miami, Sochi, San Diego, Kunming, Nice, and anywhere that has the stupid 'Spring City' or 'Tropical Paradise' banner on it.

Climates that have thunderstorms and wet summers. Many people in here favour thunder and humidity...ugh...

Really? 60F (15C) is rather cold - most people in temperate/subtropical zones would turn on the heater really.

Btw, we turn on our heaters when it's around 73F (23C). Night can be cold and the chilliness still lingers in the house during the day, despite the pleasant 23C...

23C and turning on the heater shouldn't be used in the same sentence. Seriously.

Uh.. I don't think they do, unless they live in a really cold house. At night is different - if it's 16C by day but 0C by night, then the heating will come on in the morning to get things warmed up.

True. Everything in moderation - it's true for both diet and climate.

Even I who is cold intolerant wouldn't turn the heater on at 23c. A blanket should provide enough warmth until about 15c.
