A battle between two cities called Naples in Italy and Florida - take your pick. Naples, Italy
Naples, Florida

The FL one. More storms, hotter and longer summers, pleasant winters, less disgusting cold rain, better in almost every way possible.

Naples, while far from my favorite climate in FL, is still better than that disgusting boring dry shitheap in Italy.

Florida easily. Hotter year-round with the correct precipitation pattern.

Naples, while far from my favorite climate in FL, is still better than that disgusting boring dry shitheap in Italy.Now you're just full of shit. 1000 mm isn't dry in any way.
Napoli has 3 months of dry season and the rest of the months are moderately rainy with some rainy months like November. Naples, FL has 5 months of dry season, 3 months with moderate rainfall and 4 rainy months that bump up the figures significantly. So, the one in Florida is actually drier for longer periods of time than the one in Italy.
But despite having a dry season, none of them are dry. Get real. |

But despite having a dry season, none of them are dry. Get real. Indeed, Naples, FL is also ridiculously dry for those temps, though still an order of magnitude better than the Italian one since it receives most of its precipitation in the correct season. I'm not too fond of a dusty dead-looking summer landscape, and 2-4 rain days per month in summer is as kill maself as it gets. |

Italy for sure. Far better climate in every conceivable way.

I get your point, you don't like dry summers. Somebody else might not like a dry winter for example, because it can likewise produce a dead and dusty-looking landscape. But calling a climate dry just because it has a lack of precipitation in the "correct" season is simply wrong.

But calling a climate dry just because it has a lack of precipitation in the "correct" season is simply wrong. It has nothing to do with preferences, it's all about balancing evaporation and precipitation. If you can have precipitation greater than evaporation during the growing season, you have sufficient water for plant growth and it's not a dry climate. Unfortunately, neither of these climates can satisfy that entirely, but Florida gets significantly closer. |

Napoli of course, Mediterranean paradise  and it doesn't get damaged by hurricanes, as a bonus. |

Napoli for more seasonality and for not having excessively wet summers.
I however, don't do these ancient averages. I assume that 1991-2020 is warmer, hence better than what's provided here (1971-2000).
