What is your favorite climate to live in?

Hot and dry, although temperate and sunny is also fine, assuming it doesn't get too cold.

[Sprouts Farmers Market ✘]

Used to be cold but after this month temperate and sunny (WITH NO WIND IN THE WINTER LIKE EVER)

[H. Ross Peron]

Marine West Coast and/or Mediterranean.

Option 3 (normal...I hope)

[Goldwater]

Marine West Coast and/or Mediterranean.

If we are using actual climates like GMB is doing here, my favorite ones are hot-summer Mediterranean (CSA) and hot Arid/Semi-Arid (BWh/BSh).

I guess I don't like the first and fourth options.  I'm not sure about the second and third.  I like tropical, wet climes quite a bit, but I also like a nice high-UV day once in a while to work on my sunburn, and of course I like the occasional frost to kill off mosquitos.  I guess if I were going to create a physics from scratch, I'd invent palm trees that could live in ice, and re-route the Henry's Law constants so that the water could still be crystal clear even though there's a cold season.  Caribbean blue sea, white beaches, and a backdrop of snow-capped mountains.  That sort of thing.

Option 2. Although my interpretation of "temperate" is more on the colder side. Basically a Dfb classification, which is where I live now.

option 1. I'd love to live in Maine.

That's not what I'd consider cold and freezing, but good choice.

Temperate and overcast/foggy all the time, and not likely to exceed 90F in the Summer.

I.. I just don't understand you.

D climates are Continental, C climates are Temperate.

Me neither.

Is there an association with left-wing economics and preferring crappy weather or something?  This forum seems to have some strange affinity for cold climates.

[Suburbia]

Temperate and sunny.

Meh, I could also live in Canada. Just not too far north Montreal, Toronto or Vancouver would all be cool.

[Hatman 🍁]

Vancouver's not what I'd call "cold and freezing".

Voted cold and freezing of course! Just as long as it's only for a few months.

[Grumpier Than Thou]

I was just speaking generally about which Canadian cities I'd want to live in.

3 or 4, voted 4 in this one. Hot and dry would be fine, Mediterranean would be ideal.

I live in a very humid continental zone, and while I don't mind the weather varying a little or cooling down, the changes are honestly far too drastic for my personal taste. I have like 3 wardrobes: One for cold as hell, one for cool and wet, and one for hot and very humid. I adjust to one and it changes! lol.

[politicallefty]

I voted hot and sunny, but my thoughts are somewhat more nuanced than that. Basically, my preferred climate is Mediterranean (both the Csa and Csb climate classifications). I like summers hot/warm and dry (not humid) where you can get the cool nights. As for winter, I prefer to avoid snow and temperatures below 40ºF.

Am I the only person who doesn't really like forests? People talk about how beautiful they are, but when I'm in a dense forest I kind of feel claustrophobic, I think it's becasue the trees kind of block the sun and my view of the distance. I also think that things like mesas and rocky hills look more interesting than most forest landscapes.

I,...I just don't understand you...at all
