October 22, 2020: 55/39 Partly Cloudy

October 23, 2020: 56/40 Partly Cloudy

I'd say B. None are too bad though. A is pretty close to our October weather, which stands are 59/43F so far in 2023.

Question... Why does it have to be fictional? Would be more interesting if it was real. No?

Find 3 locations with weather past 5 days and pick which we prefer.

A definitely. It's the forecast I wish we had. The others are too warm.

If i could dream then a high of 52f and 4" of rain would be perfect for me each week of the month.

I think when you use a real climate, people form a bias. "Well, objectively A would be nice but I hate Baltimore" lol.
