Nope. This climate is not for me. Take it back I give it an F but it is a very interesting climate

If it was a Maltese city FG would place it above Valencia, Spain lmao...

Same for me if it was a Spanish city. XD

I noticed something about this climate. Seasonility is very poor in this climate. Summer and Winter temperature difference is very little. It only has day and night temperature difference. It is almost a tropical climate

well it is at 5.4°S 137.8°E, so it's basically at the equator, I would expect it to have little seasonality.

Seasonality would be in Martian years, not Earth years. (Martian year is ~23 months). But at 4 degrees S it would be weak.

Why? Everything seems too cold for you then all out of a sudden a place colder than Vostok's not for you?

I wonder what the Martian climate is at the poles, probably less diurnal range due to less solar radiation?

I would really love if more weather stations were put on Mars at different locations. I wonder which is the warmest climate of Mars, should be somewhere on the Southern Hemisphere because Mars is nearer to the sun during the southern summer (the difference between the aphelion and perihelion is much greater than that on Earth).
