🇩🇪 Munich vs 🇺🇸 Los Angeles

Munich's climate is shaped by its position on the elevated Bavarian plateau at roughly 520m above sea level and its proximity to the northern Alps, just 100km to the south. The city experiences a humid continental climate with cold, snowy winters and warm summers, but the Föhn wind — a warm, dry downslope wind from the Alps — can raise temperatures dramatically and bring extraordinary visibility and clear skies at any time of year. The Isar river corridor, extensive English Garden parkland, and varying building densities create distinct microclimates across the city.

Mediterranean — warm dry summers, mild wet winters, abundant sunshine

Los Angeles has one of the most consistent climates on Earth. Coastal areas stay mild year-round; inland valleys can be dramatically hotter in summer and colder on winter nights. The infamous June Gloom socks coastal areas in marine layer fog May–July until midday.
