Do you know what current cities' climate will the cities' future climate resemble? For example, in RCP8.5 scenario, Helsinki's winters in 2100 will resemble current winters in Frankfurt. What would your city's climate the resemble?

Supposedly similar to Nashville, TN for both our winter and summer temperatures, but with more evenly distributed precipitation (Nashville skews towards spring rains). Similar annual extremes too, with hardiness zone 7b/8a and annual heat extremes of around 39-40C.

However, I think RCP 8.5 is not that likely, and RCP 4.5 is more likely how things are going to go, in which case we'd have a climate closer to that of Detroit or Albany, NY.

And in fact, so far, we've even falling well short of the RCP 4.5 predictions since only our winters have been warming at the forecasted rate, while our summers have actually cooled slightly... So maybe we'll only end up with a climate like London, ON or Brantford, ON.
