🇮🇳 New Delhi vs 🇺🇸 Hartford

Semi-arid — extreme summers, cold winters, brief monsoon, severe air pollution

Delhi has extreme seasonal swings. Winters can frost; summers regularly hit 113°F (45°C). The monsoon (July–September) provides relief but also flooding. The city has severe air quality problems, particularly October–February when pollution peaks.

Hartford in the Connecticut River Valley has a humid continental climate, sheltered from direct ocean influence by the hills to the southeast. This valley position gives Hartford hotter summers and colder winters than coastal Connecticut. The river moderates temperatures somewhat while creating fog and humidity along its banks.
