That site is a brilliant resource. Thanks for sharing.

One of my main considerations when moving somewhere is the climate.

It would be cool if the site had links to places with similar climates (could be calculated with some kind of distance metric from all the variables). I loved the climate in Sydney, so it would be nice to see a list of places in the world where it's similar.

No problem. That's actually the first time I've seen it as well, and it seems to have pretty much all the information I'd like about climate.

And yeah, I've never looked around for one, but being able to search for cities within similar bounds would be nice. Makes me wonder if there are national weather databases you could use to perform your own queries and get similar results.

I found this which seems good.

One feature I would like would be the ability to filter results by continent (or even more fine grained filters).
