1- Medigayrranean climates often correlate with barren bushlands and steppes while monsoonal ones are often in correlation with lush forests. Compare the lush forests of Eastern China and Korea to the gay stupid chaparrals of California. It's a fact that summer rain is essential for tree growth, while winter rain and snow isn't since the plants are dormant anyway. 2- Monsoonal climates have cozy dry winters with not much snow to shovel, unlike medigayrranean ones who get suicidal weather with drizzle, snow and overcast skies most of the winter  3- Medigayrranean climates are often associated with homosexuality. It's no coincidence both Ancient Greece and California are known for being gay regions. Monsoonal climates produce manly men with high testosterone. 4- Medigayrranean climates are associated with the birthplace of civilization . While the monsoonal steppe tundras of ice age Europe and Siberia were associated with the most prosperous hunter gatherer societies. 5- Monsoonal climates have much more exciting summers with all the downpours and heavy rain, while medigayrranean climates only get shitty dry weather that makes the grass brown, and it's the same bone dry weather every day. |

1. I like bushlands, grasslands, steppes, savannas, and woodlands. Lush forests are boring and ugly to me.
2. Mediterranean climates have much higher biological productivity in winter, and build up water reserves that can be used for irrigation in the dry summer. The abundant winter groundwater also contributes to plant growth.
3. There's nothing wrong with being gay.
4. It's good to be the birthplace of advanced civilization.
5. I like having consistent hot, dry summer weather. Plans never get ruined.

1. Bad taste. 2. I'd rather have my plants irrigated by rain, thanks. 3. People from monsoonal climates are still manlier than people from medigayrranean ones 4. Oh yes I love civilization. I love working 12 hours a day in the croplands to farm food for the lazy king who doesn't farm and dying of heart disease at age 25. Way better than spending 3 hours of my day hunting and gathering, having a lot of time to breed with hot cavewomen and living in perfect health to the age of 40. 5. Winter rain and snow also ruins your plains. At least summer rain usually lasts for a few hours, so not your entire day is ruined, while winter rain and snow might last for several consecutive days. |

1. This is stupid, the PNW has very lush forests with a summer dry season, same with southern Chile. Some of the biggest trees in the world are redwoods and sequoias that only grow in California.
2. If they’re mild winters I agree with you. Cold winter monsoonal climates are nightmarish, horrible useless cold winters and then the pleasant season is washed out.
3. Who cares
4. Excellent point
5. Totally agree, summer thunderstorms are necessary and are nonexistent in boring ass Med climates

well, do you like monsoonal climates that get real winters or ones that don't? because they're very different
I don't see how you could like Beijing's climate. Just a waste of cold temps in winter without much snowfall.
You liking a tropical or subtropical monsoon climate that ensures year-round warmth seems more plausible, but there are Mediterranean climates like Los Angeles that provide year-round warmth and don't have the "miserable" winters you describe at all.
But I personally prefer more northernly med climates that have at least somewhat of a winter with at least some snowfall.

Ya wanna see some BIG Med pattern forests check out the Jarrah and Karri forests of south western Western Australia. www.manjimupwa.com/treesI like both Med and Monsoonal pattern climates... the contrast between the wet and dry seasons and the renewal of life that the rains bring never ceases to amaze... To answer the points: 1/- Perth is dry as a witch's tit in summer, barren and dry and hot, then cool lush and green in winter.... some of the best cropland/grazing in AU. 2/- Most of the Monsoonal world hasn't the faintest idea re snow and ice etc.... sure, China and Korea etc have cold AF winters in the northern latitudes, everywhere else is mild/warm/hot tropical/subtropical. 3/- I'm not gay but I've fucked a bloke who is.... 4/- A no brainer champ ( see AU blackfellas... poor bastards are only 2 generations from swinging through the trees ) 5/- Change of seasons from wet to dry to wet... the countryside changes from green to brown to green. Mu monsoonal climate some years has over 5 months without a drop of rain... we all universally love the rainy season !! |

1. Largely true, growing season precip is more important than winter precip for plant growth, especially true in colder climates. Some of the wetter Med climates do have greenery though.
2. Agreed
3. You've literally admitted to bumming horses, so stop it with your fake ass hypocritical homophobic bullshit, you mongoloid.
4. Yes, except ALL warm/hot climates (humid subtropical, Mediterranean, monsoonal and hot desert) have places that have been cradles for ancient civilization. Take the ancient Indus Valley (the drier monsoon-influenced climates mind you) for example.
5. That's purely subjective horseshit, I'm indifferent to precip summer totals, though storms and hot weather are important to me life in summer.

Monsoonal climates are pretty garbage though. After a dry, boring winter, you start yearning for a summer. (I guess this does not apply to tropical ones, since they are warm/summery during the entire year, but whatever) A season that should be full of fair, dry and warm/hot weather for outdoor activities like going to the beach, hiking, enjoying nature - being outside in general. Only to get a cloudy, washout mosquito-infested crummer, where your plans are ruined by a drenching rain (and fucking mosquitoes, gotta mention these bastards once again). And monsoonal climates are abundant in floods too (due to greater precipitation amounts), to my knowledge much more than the Med climates are - no thanks. 2- Monsoonal climates have cozy dry winters with not much snow to shovel, unlike medigayrranean ones who get suicidal weather with drizzle, snow and overcast skies most of the winter I don't know where you smart asses get this notion that Med climates are so cloudy and wet in the winter. Sure, there are some outliers like Seattle, but most of them have decently sunny winters, on par with the Cfa climates. Perth, Sevilla, Jerusalem, LA and so on. They certainly have the sunniest winters here in Europe. By the way, drizzle ≠ light rain. Light rain is rain that falls at a light pace. You still get normal sized raindrops. Drizzle is when you get those tiny, mist-like droplets that are much smaller than a regular raindrop. Sometimes Med climates get light rain, but drizzly conditions are not that frequent and don't last that long either (well, except in the PNW I guess). Also, what snow are you talking about? Most Med climates rarely if ever get snow. And don't pretend that your monsoonal climates don't get snow (Dwb/Dwa ones obviously).

many med climates (Coastal California, California Central Valley) never get snow. In the western US, most of the med climates that do get snowfall don't get that much, so you wouldn't have to worry about shoveling or driving in snow that often (Seattle, Portland, Eugene, Medford, Redding (although they get EVEN LESS snow then the other places I named).
there certainly are some snowy climates that fit into the Mediterranean category (big bear lake, CA, Weed, CA, Susanville, CA, Lake Shasta city, CA, some western cascades foothill locations that fit Csb better than oceanic) but not a whole lot of people live in these places.

There's nothing boring about a dry winter. Boring is the same bone dry weather of mediterranean summers, which is partly cloudy or clear skies, 25C-35C days, 15C-20C nights and not a single drop of rain. And no, most mediterranean climates don't have sunny winters, except Perth and borderline semi arid ones. People in dry winter regions like Mongolia and Northern China don't suffer from seasonal depression, while those from wet winter regions do. Regardless of how mild winters are, if they are wet and overcast most of the time, people will get seasonal depression. Dwa and Dwb climates do get less snow than a lot of Csb and Cfb climates. For comparison, Prince Rupert gets almost twice as much snow days as Beijing. |

Dry cold without snow is way better than wet cold since you don't have to shovel, and you don't get seasonal depression, so it's by no way an waste of cold temps. Most mediterranean climates do have miserable winters, Los Angeles is an exception due to being borderline semi-arid. Seattle, San Francisco, Curico, Marseille, are very dull during the winter. |

Sure, they're not as warm and sunny as Los Angeles, but they're not that uncomfortable for someone who dislikes cold. |

Think about that. And you don't know what a cloudy winter is. Look at the Northern/Central Europe and then say something. 3. Prince Rupert is oceanic.

Dry cold is boring as fuck. Why would I want a shitty uncomfortable temp with wall to wall sunshine every day? Absolutely boring. With wet cold you at least get snow and precipitation so it’s not just cold for no reason. If winter is cold, a slight Med pattern is good.
However, if winter is mild and most of the precipitation would be cold rain and temps are otherwise pleasant, drier winters and wetter summers are good.
Generally, the worse the temps are, the more important it is that there’s lots of precipitation with those temps. The non-shit temp season should then be the pleasant season, so should be relatively dry. In a climate with good temps year round (roughly 45-85 f average highs), there would be a summer maximum and a fall dry season with moderate precipitation in winter
