🇺🇸 Montgomery vs 🇺🇸 San Francisco

Montgomery has a humid subtropical climate, sitting on Alabama's coastal plain with very hot and humid summers. The Alabama River moderates temperatures slightly but the city sees frequent summer thunderstorms and occasional tornado threats. Winters are mild with rare freezing events.

San Francisco's climate is shaped by its position on a peninsula surrounded by the Pacific Ocean and San Francisco Bay. The coastal fog (Karl the Fog) rolls in through the Golden Gate each summer afternoon, keeping temperatures mild year-round. The city has dramatically different microclimates — the Sunset District fog-bound while the Mission basks in sun on the same day.
