🇳🇱 Amsterdam vs 🇺🇸 North Charleston

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.

North Charleston is a major industrial and port city that is significantly different in character from the historic Charleston peninsula. Inland from the sea breezes that moderate historic Charleston, this city experiences more extreme heat in summer. The Boeing Dreamliner plant and port facilities create industrial heat islands.
