Rainbow City gets a C, it's alright, but a little too wet for me and it has a crummer.

I split my dream climate into two different dream climates - one oceanic and one tropical. Attachments:

I don't like the tropical climate but the oceanic climate is pretty decent, like a B-. It's only drawback is too dry in the summer.

Kaleetan I'm a big fan of the tropical one (though it could use some more seasonality in temps); the oceanic one is disgusting.

I went searching through old threads on City-Data and found my first ever Dream Climates from October 2008: Neither of these would be any good now. #1 is too hot and humid, #2 has shit winters and a bit cool summers. #1 looks a lot like Stolton City of New Florida.
This climate eventually morphed into this:
In February 2009 I created this tropical climate as a compromise with cooler winters. It was the first rendition of what became the "Tym City" of South New Florida today, as can be seen back in my mega-post of all 32 New Florida city climates. It would no longer be ideal.
From September 2009, this was my first "Stolton City", before the latter-day finalisation of New Florida's position and size was completed. What a shithouse. Those 29°C lows.
After wanking over super-steamy tropical climates, in March 2010 I finally decided I'd rather have a seasonal subtropical climate of some kind. Nowadays I'd drop the summer avg. highs down to 30 and up the winter ones to 18-20.

MET from what you said at the end, we probably have the same dream climate

MET do you still have the 68 years' worth of data you referenced in this post?

MET do you still have the 68 years' worth of data you referenced in this post? Yes, I do and I'm going to create some averages out of it, in fact it's the same climate as the one called "Bolton Ford" above, but from years in the 20th century as opposed to 2010-2039. |

My first dream climate, from back in 2002:  My 2004 dream climate:  A modern remake of Mehtown, the coolest climate to get an A grade from me:  |

I added all the complete years between 1900-2009 together, to make this table (many years were missing however):
Over time, it morphed into the following. Winters got a bit cooler and summers a bit warmer mostly. Also got sunnier and a bit drier.

Anyone remember Koyaanisqatsi off City-Data? His dream climate is very wet and cloudy, plus I had to remove two years from his averages as they had 14 months. For some reason, the average low is the same all year round.  |

His dream climate from 2013:  |

New Dream Climate
As of today I will be making my new dream climate. I have made a quick weatherbox with my new ideal Cfa/Cwa climate, but it's not based on actual years of data. I'm making data from 1950-2020 for the new climate, and will produce averages from it afterwards. Realism is not a major focus, so I'll be quite liberal with certain weather events that can happen and make it quite interesting and varied within the climate type it is. Should be interesting.
Now I've done 3 years, more details:
-Thunderstorms in summer help to keep temperatures down, so if there are long streaks without storms it gets very hot. -Capable of intense heatwaves any time of year. -Capable of getting very cold occasionally in winter, but always with sunny weather and large diurnals. Snow is possible, but rarely because I don't mind seeing it for one day. -Also recording the lightning strikes/square kilometer, and it does indeed get TONS of lightning in the monsoon period. The lightning strike density so far is 64/km square.
-Even though the seasonal temp change is quite flat, it has a very high day-to-day standard variation, with unstable temps all year round. Never know when it could be very hot or relatively cool either in winter or summer.

Lol I love extremely rainy climates but even for me that's over the top. I would happy with the rain in just one of his months spread throughout the whole year. |
