Ha! So basically you're ignoring most of what weather is. I'm surprised Amsterdam (my current location) didn't end on top. I mean if you ignore the rain and the wind (and the sunshine hours) it's actually not that bad...
Weather isn’t just temperature. Bogotá has perfect temperature but is cloudier than Seattle.
Isn't it Medellín though thats known as the "city of eternal spring" because of the weather?
It has rained pretty much every day this year in Medellin though. Still it's 20c Edit: Begins to rain
The SF Bay Area has the nicest weather year round, which is probably a strong contributing factor to why the area is so rich. I'm currently in Tokyo. The temparetrue is not the nicest year round, but it feels very natural. There are four seasons. Winter is tolerable and it rarely goes below 0C. It snows about once a year. Summer is hot, just like it should be, but it hardly goes above 32C. The only thing that bothers…
I live here in South Bay and while I do love the weather, it is a bit colder than ideal. I think SoCal especially San Diego definitely has better and more consistent weather. San Diego is an amazing city apart from weather as well! Meanwhile my childhood hometown is not dipping below 30C this week, and the highs every day are above 43C…
> We’ll ignore any other weather characteristics like humidity, rain, wind, diurnal temperature difference, etc. If the author ends up moving to Edinburgh based on this, we can count on seeing a follow up analysis that doesn’t ignore rain.

Seattle has pretty good weather too, if you only consider temperature.
It is 40 degrees F right now… in mid May. And has been all month and basically all year since last November. I don’t see how you can call that good temperature.

Did you move there from SF? Do you work in tech? I'd be curious to hear how it is if so. My understanding is that they just announced they are going to let international travelers back in June.
There are several tech companies that speak English internally. You can google for Tokyo Dev Jobs or Japan Dev Jobs and a few websites will popup.

Yeah, not surprising to see Dublin surface in a good weather list built off temperatures alone, and yet the weather is piss poor for 49/52 weeks a year.
Of the places I've been Dublin has the most stable weather except perhaps Canary islands, but the difference is that Dublin has stable and shitty weather while Canary islands have stable and nice. I love Ireland but couldn't live there full time.

Tokyo summers are miserable, as are the ones in Seoul and New York City. I have lived in all three and every July/August I wonder if this is the year I start cooling off in Bogota for a month.
Weather seems like the classic the grass is greener elsewhere. I see Edinburgh ranks well which I live near. Had also lived near Toronto and can vouch for the less extreme temperature variance in Scotland. The seasons are less well defined here, it's quite normal to have all 4 seasons in a day.
In the high desert of the US southwest (6000'/1800m and above), it is not unusual to see diurnal temperature swings of 30F/16C or close to it. It's completely normal for at least 2 seasons a year to need an insulated jacket in the morning and evening, a light sweater just after and before the jacket is removed/added, and a t-shirt or similar for the middle of the day. Of course, the chance of rain is close to zero ou…
