Aberdeen is cooler in every season and sees 2 meters of rain (!!!!).

Portsmouth is like the Nice of the UK ! Even the sunshine is excellent for a NW european location, comparable to Milan.

Portsmouth for me.

They moved from England to live in Aberdeen? Why?! There's not much there.

How is the vegetation over there compared to Seattle?
Well I don't know really but abundant winter rain doesn't comes to critical as monsoonal climate for the fauna and floras.

It is diffucult to choose because I don 't know the sunshine data of Aberdeen. I guess that Aberdeen gets more snow than Portsmouth every year. But Portsmouth has better summers. Pfff I don 't know what to choose.

Aberdeen probably gets no snow and has no summers.
