Difinately Windsor for it’s hotter, more humid summer, warmer summertime lows, and colder winter temps with more chances of snow. Not a fan of Pacific Northwest climates!

Windsor by far! That's an A climate, only the a bit cooler-than-ideal April prevents it from being A+!

Awesome climate!

Use to surprise that I’d have colder lows despite being much closer to the ocean. I get more sun, especially in winter, which explains the colder lows. Also the Great Lakes keeps winters a bit more mild

Windsor for the cooler winters and snowfall. That said, Portland still has a decent climate and putting climate aside, I would much rather live in Portland than Windsor.

Windsor gets lots of gloom and high precipitation days in winter. Not as bad as Portland. Freezing makes gloom more depressing IMO

A place that gets buried in in snow? No thanks. Portland is much better.

Windsor is not in the snow belt, that would be London, Ontario or Erie, PA
