Compared to that island though my landmass is very large, about the same size as Australia, and that city is an inland location, and also in a location that yields a winter rain shadow not seen in summer, due to topographical layout. The climate has been calculated quite comprehensively from known wind currents, effects of landmasses on insolation, radiation and such.
Ok that makes sense lol. Sorry, when you mentioned an island I was thinking a small tropical island but if its the size of Australia that makes sense. Love the climate btw pretty similar to mine tbf

Yeah the size of the landmass also means it has some colder climates (that I wouldn't bother with but did make some averages as well) and lots of ones more similar to yours actually. Your climate is good and would probably get a B rating from me. A is reserved for CWA climates.
What is the average number of days with thunderstorms a year?
Carven city gets 95.7 days per year, which may be an over estimation (I love storms too much).

I'd say about 40 thunderstorms per year for mine, so a little less than half the rainy days are from thunderstorms.
Here is my initial updated dream climate-- thoughts? I know I double posted this...
Sunshine and rainfall look good but everything else is pretty bad to me. Reminds me too much of the climate I currently experience with cool-cold winters, albeit with slightly warmer summers (but lows in the summer stay the same). I'd have to rate it a D-

Ah, yes, I'd say it's like a cross between an oceanic and a subtropical highland climate... I've seen some places like this in highland southern France and in Australia. Yeah the temperature profile is still likely too cool for you (a bit chillier nights than London, in fact, since I wanted to make snowfall a bit more realistic but preserve mildness to a degree during the day) but I'd imagine you'd appreciate the higher sunshine, rainfall, and crispness compared to London, in a way that is perhaps more reminiscent of places like Mexico City.
