- Annual mean temp between 22 and 25 C (71.6-77 F)
- Annual average precipitation between 1,000 and 1,500 m (39.4-59.1 in)
Inspired by similar threads, and by my dream climate (kind of outdated but still) which satisfies these conditions.

Dry season average dew points are unrealistically low for the amount of rainfall this climate gets during those months. I'll just explain it away as a quirk of trade wind disturbances that bring temperate zone cold front storms to this outer-tropical highland climate. Annual mean temp: 23.5 C Annual average precip: 1282 mm Köppen classification: Am (Tropical monsoon) Nightmare edition- inspired by both the South and East Asian monsoons, Texas, and Argentina. Made to troll everyone arguing about what is "humid subtropical" on City-Data Annual mean temp: 24.4 C Annual average precip: 1266 mm Köppen classification: Cfa (humid "subtropical")

I’d rather have winters averaging around 12C, even thought summers would have to average 32C. As much as 32C is almost unbearable, I need at least a few months of mild temperatures.
To deal with the hot summers, I’d make the 1000 inches of precipitations fall all during winter, early spring and late autumn. No summer precipitation would mean low relative humidity, making the hot temperatures not feel so bad.

psychedamike24 Very creative. Needless to say, I'd enjoy the first a lot more than the second LOL!!

Here’s mine Cheeseman. Annual mean of 71.7F and 39.36” of rainfall. This is the best I could do with your parameters, as this climate is too warm for my tastes. It’s essentially a warmer version of my dream climate, with similar genetics.

desiccatedi85 Not bad. I could definitely enjoy that climate. I get the sense summer is defined by handsome dry heat

Best climate that you've ever created. Uncommon rainfall pattern, multiple wet/dry seasons, meaning this must be a highland equatorial location. Quite good for the tropics, and that August thru October period is simply amazing.

22C mean is too warm for me. I'd pick something with around a 22C mean in all months. For real-world climates Kampala fits that range. Ideally it has more extreme temperature records but it's hard to get that with a tiny seasonal range. Add some upper 30's and some single digit lows. And cool down the climate 0.7C by making nights 1.4C cooler all year.

May I ask how you post pictures of weatherboxes here? I want to join the fun.

I don't make or edit Wiki climate boxes, but one can use 'snipping tool' on the PC to capture the wikibox image ( or any image for that matter ), upload it to Imgur, then copy and paste to the forum thread. 1/- using 'snipping tool' to capture a map image of southern Brazil 2/- The captured image saved into a 'pictures' ( or wherever ) folder then uploaded to a hosting site ie Imgur. 3/- copy and past the image to the forum post

This climate still sucks. Gets about 100 thunderstorms per year. Winter is pretty gloomy with occasional rainy days and mist to make it feel like an actual cool season. Summer is quite stormy so most days spend much of the afternoon cooler than the high.

This is the best I could come up with lol. I guess it could be some sort of moderately elevated highland climate within the tropics with very low dry season humidity and cloud cover leading to epic diurnal ranges.

caspase8 Actually not bad; the summers are similar to places like Asuncion while at least the epic diurnal ranges in the winter would provide some interest factor.

Finally made a "dream climate" that falls into these parameters. It just reaches the 22 degree mean. In order to achieve this without being hot it needs very small diurnals, and in order to be "realistic" this means it gets lots of misty conditions to create these small diurnals, hence the low sunshine hours. But these low sunshine hours won't bother me being used to the UK and with the mild temperatures year round. The rainfall is seasonal to add some interest so it isn't even more monotonous.
