🇬🇷 Athens vs 🇺🇸 San Antonio

Mediterranean — very hot dry summers, mild wet winters

Athens has a classic Mediterranean climate but is notably hotter and drier than coastal Greek islands due to its inland location in the Attica basin surrounded by mountains. Summers are among the hottest in Europe; winters are mild and pleasant.

San Antonio is America's seventh-largest city, a River Walk city where the San Antonio River provides a natural cooling corridor through the historic core. Summers are brutally hot with triple-digit temperatures common, but the city is large enough to span different microclimates from river valley to upland. Hurricane remnants from the Gulf occasionally bring tropical flooding.
