I think "what's wrong with this climate?" threads might become the new thing on here so I'm going to start one similar to "Rate the climate above you".

My rule: you must state at least 1 thing positive about the climate and at least one thing negative about the climate before you but you can list up to 5 things in each category (in a list format, not paragraph)

I'll start off with the climate of Melbourne

Too oceanic (too warm in winter), I like the interesting temperature spikes in Summer to keep it interesting.

BWh hot desert climate. That means that it's terrible; far too hot year round and far too dry from September through to June.

Positive:

1) Summer thunderstorms
2) Very comfortable winter temperatures
3) Good swimming weather in summer
4) High sunshine hours

Negative:

1) Winter too dry
2) Summers temps could be about 10F cooler and still good for swimming yet more comfortable
3) Record highs too anomalous for the averages


I know you're a "four seasons" guy so here's one for you:

Positives:

1) Summer thunderstorms exist


Negatives:

1) Winters are downright frigid with no chance of even having a mild spell
2) Summer nights are too cool and the days are just lukewarm
3) Too dry

On the flip side, how about Miami?
