I'm "World Building" a simulated version of part of New Florida on the PC. It will take another 18 months I've calculated. It includes the capital, Stolton City, and the city of Harleyford, which have these climates:   |

Quite a notable revisionโeven more realistic, but also more exciting (in a way):  Changelogโข Adjusted chiefly the cool-season rainfall downwards to more closely match nearby sites that my dream climate is based around (namely Carabost and Rosewood in NSW). โข Greatly reduced snowfall as a result, but more prominently I've reduced the snowy daysโthis means that although snowfalls occur less often, they now tend to fall much heavier within a shorter span of time. |

Raised the November average high by a degree, and slightly raised the Oct, Nov and Dec record highs.  |

Increased November-March record highs by 2C, just to give a bit more possibilities what temperatures can be recorded during this cold period of the year, and are more in line with Detroit, which was the primary inspiration for my dream climate. Those kinds of temperatures are not frequently occurring, but are possible once in 20 years.

Ushgabal October 2021 Edition  The GREATEST climate in reality and fiction makes a gallant return. Some changes are overall cooling in summer and autumn (particularly april's max and D,J,F minima), an increase in rainfall year-round, a slight decrease in sunshine as well. Also an important aspect of summer that isn't shown on the wikibox is that maximums in December are earlier in the day (and the peak is shorter) as the seabreeze comes in earlier and is very strong compared to February when the temperature peak is for a long period of the afternoon and early evening as the ocean is warmer and therefore the seabreeze loses its cooling effect. E.g. December 5th: 1200: 32.5C 1300: 33.0 1400: 31.3 ---- seabreeze comes in 1500: 30.3 1600: 30.0 1700: 29.9 1800: 28.7 1900: 26.8 Sunset February 5th: 1200: 32.5C 1300: 33.0C 1400: 33.4C 1500: 33.5C 1600: 33.5C --- seabreeze comes in 1700: 32.7C 1800: 30.1C Sunset 1900: 28.8C Comparison to Feb 2020 Edition  |

My Dream Climate nation "New Florida" has several cities with variants of my ideal climate, humid subtropical. Seeing as I should just pick one, the following looks like a nice one. Proper summers. Mild winters which can still get cold at night.  Behold: My October 2021 Dream Climate. How the mighty have fallen  |

2022 update:  Changes: -Warmer November to February -Warmer June highs -Cooler July and August -Added some light drizzle in winter -More snow -More precipitation/snow days -Slightly wetter winter/early summer -Slightly drier April and August/September -Much lower summer record highs Itโs now back to BSk per koeppen. Winter is milder but snowier, most days have 45-65 f highs with severe cold snaps with heavy snow occurring several times a month. There is also the occasional drizzly day. Spring is mostly unchanged except some precipitation was shifted from April to May. Late June to late August features a monsoon similar to the southwest US. Alternates between dry periods and stormy monsoonal periods so that thereโs plenty of storms but itโs still easy to plan outdoor activities. The records were lowered for the sake of realism. While Iโd like several days in the 105-110 range per year itโs not really realistic. Also gives me something to root for. If it barely gets to 100 most years then thatโs something exciting. Would get boring if all the weather I wanted always happened. Fall is mostly unchanged except November is warmer, I kind of liked the mild fall this year. |

Too lazy to make a box, but will eventually get around to it:
Major change is a bit lower diurnal range, from 55/85 (13/29) to 59/82 (15/28) in july and 26/48 (-3/9) to 26/44 in january (-3/7), maybe 5 fewer inches of precip (and reducing snowfall back to 40") while retaining the late spring peak. Think my records and mean max/min temps are going to stay about the same. Maybe a bit more winter and less summer sun as well.

Finally got around to posting this one. I've made a few changes to my ideal climate. Changelog: * Made mean max/min temps more realistic * Made diurnal ranges a bit larger * Evened out precipitation pattern a bit and made it slightly wetter  Average daily max/min temperatures, if anyone's interested:

Did the last 5 years of data to show how the climate behaves. November-June is based on Goodland, July-August is based on Show Low, and September-October are based on Scottsbluff and then adjusted based on my dream climateโs averages (Iโd have based everything on Walsenburg but thatโs a coop station so canโt see real time observations and not midnight-midnight). 2017:  2018:  2019:  2020:  2021:  Averages: cdweather.boards.net/post/202697T-storms: 2017: 60 2018: 43 2019: 36 2020: 26 2021: 56 |

 Tropic City, a large and vibrant but safe metropolis of about 1.2 million people, straddles the Tropic of Capricorn along a beautiful stretch of coast and has a tropical (Af) climate per Koppen - though with a milder precipitation distribution more commonly found in temperate climates. Inspirations included Asuncion, Perth, South Florida, Cuba, and Rio de Janeiro. Winters are mild with cool nights, while summers are very warm - though the majority of summer days are cooler than average, as the record highs come from short-lived heat spikes in the style of southern Australia. The beach lines the city and serves as a primary social destination; its white sand will leave you breathless, as will the view as the sun sets into the ocean. The people of Tropic City love hanging out outside, having backyard barbecues, hanging out at the beach or at one of the area's many parks and nature preserves - and the beach is often loaded with beautiful young women in bikinis, people enjoying a margarita or pina colada, and people of both sexes and all ages sunbathing and feeling the warm tropical breeze. The nightlife scene is very vibrant, with rock, electronic dance, and various Hispanic and Caribbean music styles being heard well into the night. People also like to cruise around town in nifty cars from the 50s, 60s, and 70s with the windows rolled down and the stereos cranked way up, and the city's laid out well so there aren't a lot of traffic problems considering the size. Most days are sunny and dry, though of course there are still some cloudy and rainy days. All-day drizzle is exceedingly rare, as the vast majority of the precipitation comes in the form of frontal or convective thunderstorms - most often occurring in the evening hours. Tropic City provides many a good lightning show with gusty winds and downpours - and people enjoy it, popping over to their buddy's house with the covered porch that allows for the best view, with a bucket of KFC and a six-pack of their favorite beer. The average year sees an impressive 74.8 thunder days, for the most part evenly distributed - though the most intense storms tend to happen in summer. Expect big thunderheads and tons of flickering lightning, with some stars still visible in the opposite direction - and enjoy the symphony created by the thunder and rain. For the most part, the storms last only an hour or two, but they're still a rewarding experience to have watched and enjoyed. Notice the southern hemisphere seasons - this allows my December birthday to be right at the start of summer: a gorgeous 90 F sunny day perfect for having my friends over for a backyard barbecue and then heading down to the beach. There's a fair amount of seasonal lag in summer and autumn, with the potential for a nice Indian summer period in April or May - though not as much in the winter, where June and July are the two coolest months, and by the end of August it starts feeling like spring again with jacarandas blooming all over the place and highs usually making it to the proper side of 80 F. The coolest temperatures of the year are going to be due to radiation cooling on clear still winter nights; it might be 52 F (11 C) on a "close the windows and put some slippers on" July night, but still 75 F (24 C) the preceding and following afternoons. The warmest are due to these brief 1-2 day heat spikes, due to warm desert air being enhanced as it travels over the hills into the city basin; that hottest February day is probably going to top out around 111 F (44 C), with a low around 83 F (28 C). Coldest high temperature on record, based on a POR dating back to 1858, is 69.7 F (20.9 C) on 14 July 1994 - local residents thought they were gonna freeze! The warmest low temperature on record is 90.4 F (32.5 C) on 14 January 2001 - part of a real scorcher of a summer, as the high made it to a nice healthy 118.8 F (48.2 C) that same day.
Also, there has NEVER been cold crummer crap on record in the summer. The coldest summer high on record was 80.9 F (27.2 C) on 7 December 1972. It's just not possible for the temperature to stay under 80 F for an entire day in summer in Tropic City.
Even in winter, everyone walks around wearing a T-shirt and shorts, and most people do not have heat in their homes - it's simply unnecessary. Local schools and universities run according to the southern hemisphere seasons, with the school year beginning the first week of March and ending in the first half of November. Locally observed holidays include Easter, Halloween, and Christmas; in addition to Founding Day on 21 January, Thanksgiving on the last Friday in May, Remembrance Day on the second Monday in November (the "unofficial start of summer" right after school gets out), and for the folk of Irish descent, St. Patrick's Day is a big deal. Tropic City is often rated as one of the most fun, most affordable, and most livable cities in the world - and who WOULDN'T have a good time in such a tropical paradise? Cevven Benfxmth I know you guys saw this climate box in the shoutbox earlier this evening; here it is in the thread for everyone to enjoy. Y'all are welcome to PM me for any other questions or considerations - I had fun worldbuilding this place too. |
