🇲🇾 Kuala Lumpur vs 🇺🇸 West Palm Beach

Tropical rainforest — hot and humid year-round, no distinct seasons

Kuala Lumpur is hot and wet year-round. The city lies just 3° north of the equator with no true seasons. Two peak rainfall periods occur: October–November and March–April. June–August is relatively drier.

West Palm Beach on the Atlantic coast sits across the Intracoastal Waterway from Palm Beach island. The city is in the tropical section of Florida where temperatures essentially never freeze. Summer heat and humidity are oppressive but Atlantic sea breezes provide afternoon relief. Hurricane season risk is significant for this southeastern Florida location.
