I don't think there's enough manipulations I can make to the climate here that would make me enjoy it. Maybe something like the coldest months ever recorded from October through April, May kept as is and June-September getting the wettest months ever recorded for each months.
So it'd be something like this: Dec-Feb averaging something like 19/10 C or 18/9 C, March averaging like 23/11 C, April probably something like 26/14, May kept as is (30/23 or so) and June-September averaging about 31-32 C for highs each and 24-25 C for lows, with about 500-550 mm of rain for each month. October would average something like 27/18 and November 23/13 or something along those lines.
This would bring the climate here from a solid F to the higher reaches of an F/lower reaches of a D....

Predominant offshore (E) flow instead of the usual onshore (W) flow would result in warmer summers and colder winters across the PNW. I don't think average temps wouldn't shift by a ton but it would definitely give a more continental flavour to coastal locales like Vancouver.

Actual successful frontal systems in winter, and none in the summer. also south westerlies in summer B E G O N E (Apart from January and February max temps, every value here is either very possible or has happened. I am still a firm believer that we can average in the 30s in summer but only given the right conditions and airflows.)  Looks like that happened twice since then, in 2019 and this year |

I don't live there any more but when I was in Buxton I took a thoroughly pathetic year, 2012, and gradually morphed it into more of a subtropical style of climate, small changes at a time. The actual year of 2012:  Then, as if it were at sea level:  Then, as if it was a lower latitude:  And more improved with more a lot more sun:  Then even more improved.  |

I think I'd just change the Winters the rest of the year is OK but possibly from Late October to Mid March I'd make the prevailing winds go from the North-East direction so sea-effect snow is possible via the North Sea. Would mean London's winters would be dramatically cooler. November would average about 8c/2c December 2c/-3c January 1c/-4c and February 2c/-3c. Also much sunnier hopefully so some nice crisp winter days with frost. Some anti-cyclonic weather would be nice too.
For the summers I'd just say no record breaking heatwaves because 1. I hate it and 2. London doesn't have the infrastructure to deal with such heat. I guess during the summer I'd ''ban'' long fetch southerlies/Southwesterlies or Easterlies. Only prevailing Westerly winds with scattered showers and pleasant sunny intervals being the norm. Say a cooler than average summer and slightly wetter - 22.9c/13c ? Normally I do like warmer summers BUT considering the infrastructure.... Or perhaps if I get an AC unit I would ''unban'' heatwaves? LOL

I have modified the years 2018-2021 of Sheffield by dramatically increasing sunshine/decreasing cloud, and making the max temperatures considerably higher, with the min temperatures cooler from radiational cooling at night. I hate rain in cold weather, so rainfall amounts are dramatically reduced. Thunder days in summer, are higher despite this. Note that because this is only 2018-2021, the July record high in this climate is less than Sheffield's real record from 2022. When I add 2022 to this next year, the record will become about 41-42 degrees. These months are technically (but remotely) possible in Sheffield.  |
