Mount Wellington for being the "warmest". But I was thinking maybe Mauna Kea might "feel" warmer because it's in the tropics and the sun will be stronger.

Oh no... These tundra hellholes make me want to get seasonal affective disorder!
Except Mauna Kea, being relatively dry and sunny year-round (although plants are a big no-no). It still takes my vote, for personal comfort.
However, overall, Reykjahlíð is best for agriculture, with the warmest summers, and likely being less windy than Mt. Wellington.

Yeah...I'll go firmly with Kea for having stronger sun (as it's deep in the subtropics), higher sunshine hours and for being pretty dry (ukhh no cold rain). Despite its "warmer" highs, Mt Wellington will still feel colder because of it's abundance of cold rain that you'll see 230 days per year and the sun being weak at its latitude! |

Reykjahlith It's the mildest while still having winter average temperatures below freezing. If I'm going to live in a cold tundra, I at least need some good snow in the winter. Assuming most of Mt. Wellington's precip is cold rain, that is some puke-worthy winter weather. I was reading through and trying to find a reason to love ANY of these, and that's a good reason. I'll pick the same one. Based on the winter precip it should be the snowiest place. Unless it gets warm rainy days followed by cool dry days..
Talyoak would have the most snow cover days. Tiksi has the hottest summer temp.
75F in Mauna Kea looks wrong. Even if it's real, it just looks wrong.
