Major bokes either one. Even though Colebrook is mad in winter and way worse than the New Hampshire average, the absence of summer in Newport, along with the brutal winter rain means its comfort counts for nothing, and in this battle of E climates, Colebrook just edges ahead, but I wouldn't live there without a backup heat aggregator  Needless to say, Salem and Eugene (OR) completely pwn both these climates... Newport rains so much without summer compensation (hello Vigo) that I'd even take Northern Ireland and Scotland over it, boke.   |

Colebrook for me as well, a far more interesting climate than Newport even if I wouldn't rate it much more than a C-. I wonder what the snow cover is like there with that much snowfall and that much potential for mild spells?
Newport I'd probably give an E, the record highs/lows suggest it can get at least some interesting weather and the summers are at least dry, but like you said, the mild winters don't count for anything if it's going to rain that much.

Probably avg max snow depth in unshoveled areas is around 100 cm I would guess? It won't be that often the snow really melts in January and February, especially with those lows. Some minor short-term melting won't deter the feeling of a snow-a-geddon mid-March  |

Colebrook. Dryer and more continental.

Colebrook. Much more exciting.

Colebrook. Much more exciting. That surprised me a bit, I thought it had way too hot summers for your liking, plus you'd surely like the gales and the low-pressure systems Newport offers in winter, when it makes the Welsh Newport look like a cakewalk?  |

I love summers that have warm highs and cool lows...there's just something so refreshing about them, with low humidity of course. I hate overly sunny climates; those kind of climates barely get any storms or gales. Sure, Newport is windier than Colebrook, but its winters are too bloody bland. |

Colebrook is 23372901379847132896347832614829370487940871091320 times better.

Newport by the tiniest margin simply because I hate very cold winters. But both are F climates.

Colebrook for having a bit more variety. Both are good climates though.  |

Newport is an easy choice for me. Colebrook is just too cold.
