🇮🇳 New Delhi vs 🇺🇸 Knoxville

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.

Knoxville at the Tennessee River bend in the Great Smoky Mountains foothills has a humid subtropical climate modified by elevation and terrain. The city sits in the Valley and Ridge physiographic province where ridge-and-valley patterns create varied microclimates. The Great Smokies to the southeast generate orographic fog that gives the range its name.
