Manta for having a summer and a decent dry season. The wet season of Malabo is too long. They're all pretty horrible though. If I could pick features from each climate, I'd take Reykjavik's winter temps and Manta's winter dryness, and for my three summer months, I'd pick Manta's April, and Malabo's April and July.

Yeah, totally. Look at how balanced the poll is. Got people in a bad dilemma I guess.

Malabo, at least it's warm and I'm assuming a good portion of its cloudiness is convective and has more thunderstorms than Manta. Manta looks like it's stratocrapulus fest.

I want to see more takes on this.

Manta is too dry.
Pasto is not wet enough and has cold nights.
Glasgow has cold winters.
Rekjavik is cold year-round.

I choose Malabo. It has warm weather and good rainfall with a lot of thunderstorms.

Manta is really good and comfortable, albeit very boring, but obviously the best of the bunch. It’s warm but not overly hot year round, and of course the cloudiness would temper the heat. It’s a solid B climate for me, just way too boring to be an A

Torshavn surely has to be the WORST! 800 sunshine hours a year! 13°C summers! Cloudiest inhabited place on earth! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tórshavn#Climate

Tropical rainforest always wins. A lot of overcast is actually desirable in such an environment, IMO.
73 inches of rain isn't so much for the tropics. Areas near Hilo, Hawaii have already had more than that in the first 3 months of 2021.

Totoró, Colombia is the cloudiest inhabited place on earth. Only 637 sunshine hours per year!

I’m surprised Manta is so dry considering how much further north it is from Guayaquil, which is also on the coast and has a tropical savannah climate
