Raleigh has warmer highs year-round, while Norfolk has milder nights due to its coastal location. Which do you prefer?

The temps are very similar, precipitation days are very similar, I would be happy with both summers, and the winters are too similar for either one to offend me enough to sway me. So my verdict is... whichever one gets more storms.

According to the normals on the NCDC summaries, Norfolk averages 33.0 thunder days per year and Raleigh averages 43.8. Interestingly though, this map shows SE Virginia getting more lightning strikes: I was leaning towards Norfolk for the lower diurnal range, but this makes it tougher.

Raleigh for having slightly colder winters. Did you mean the annual minimum? Raleigh has slightly warmer means in Jan & Feb, and I think it would feel warmer overall because of the highs.

Norfolk for the cooler summer lows, but that isn't sayin much! Are we looking at the same tables? I think you got it backwards. Anyway, Norfolk over Raleigh.
