🇺🇸 Oakland vs 🇵🇱 Warsaw

Oakland sits on the East Bay across from San Francisco and experiences a notably different climate — warmer and sunnier. The Oakland Hills act as a barrier to marine fog, but the bay provides significant cooling. The hills themselves experience dramatically different weather with more fog and wind than the flatlands below.

Humid continental — cold winters, warm summers, variable transitional seasons

Warsaw has a typical Eastern European continental climate. Winters are cold and grey; summers are warm and increasingly sunny. The city sits in the flat Polish Plain with no geographic barriers to arctic air masses in winter or Mediterranean warmth in summer.
