- Ellis, despite being a island, is more temperate, with temperature year-round generally following the global average. A occassional snow storm is possible.
- Duquesne/Pittsburgh both share a mountainous and temperate climate. The temperature dips below freezing often during winter, and the Allegheny Mountain Range here is famous for its ski slopes.
