🇳🇱 Amsterdam vs 🇺🇸 Gilbert

Temperate oceanic — mild, cloudy, and rainy year-round

Amsterdam's North Sea climate means mild, grey, and frequently wet weather year-round. Summers are pleasant but unpredictable; winters are cold with fog and occasional ice on the canals (rare). The flat terrain and canals create wind exposure throughout the city.

Gilbert is one of the fastest-growing cities in the United States and sits in the southeastern Phoenix valley. Once known as the 'Hay Capital of the World,' its transformation from agricultural to suburban has created a rapidly intensifying urban heat island. Summer temperatures are slightly moderated by remaining agricultural land in the area.
