× The weather in the city where I live is like cool and sometimes windy in November and it will get colder when it starts in December.
✓ The weather in the city where I live is cool and sometimes windy in November, and it gets colder when December starts.
The phrase 'is like cool' is incorrect; 'is cool' is the correct form. Also, 'it will get colder when it starts in December' is awkward; 'it gets colder when December starts' is more natural and consistent in tense. The conjunction 'and' should connect two independent clauses properly, so a comma is added before 'and'.
× I prefer cold weather instead of hot weather because I don't like the feeling of sweating. When I sweat, my body gets sticky and I don't really like that kind of feeling. So I prefer cold weather than hot weather.
✓ I prefer cold weather instead of hot weather because I don't like the feeling of sweating. When I sweat, my body gets sticky, and I don't really like that kind of feeling. So I prefer cold weather to hot weather.
The phrase 'prefer cold weather than hot weather' is incorrect; the correct preposition after 'prefer' is 'to', not 'than'. Also, a comma is needed before 'and' when connecting two independent clauses.
× I prefer dry weather because my body and my skin get itchy during the wet weather and when it is humid and I feel more comfortable when the air is dry.
✓ I prefer dry weather because my body and my skin get itchy during wet weather when it is humid, and I feel more comfortable when the air is dry.
The phrase 'during the wet weather' is incorrect; 'during wet weather' is more natural as 'weather' is uncountable here. Also, the sentence is long and can be improved by adding commas to separate clauses for clarity.
× I have the habit of checking the weather forecast every day before I go to work. I usually check on the temperatures and the humidity to decide the clothing that I need to wear on that day.
✓ I have the habit of checking the weather forecast every day before I go to work. I usually check the temperatures and the humidity to decide what clothing I need to wear that day.
The verb 'check' does not require the preposition 'on' in this context. Also, 'the clothing that I need to wear on that day' is better expressed as 'what clothing I need to wear that day' for naturalness.
× I think the most recent that affects the climate change in recent years is that people are likely to drive than using the public transportation which increased the.
✓ I think the most recent factor affecting climate change in recent years is that people are more likely to drive than to use public transportation, which has increased emissions.
The original sentence is incomplete and awkward. 'The most recent that affects the climate change' is unclear; 'the most recent factor affecting climate change' is clearer. 'People are likely to drive than using' is incorrect; it should be 'more likely to drive than to use'. The sentence ends abruptly with 'which increased the.' Completing it with 'which has increased emissions' clarifies the meaning.
× I definitely would like to visit other cities that have a colder climate from where I live because as I mentioned before, I don't like hot weather. I prefer cold weather which I feel more comfortable.
✓ I definitely would like to visit other cities that have a colder climate than where I live because, as I mentioned before, I don't like hot weather. I prefer cold weather because I feel more comfortable.
The phrase 'a colder climate from where I live' should be 'a colder climate than where I live' to correctly express comparison. Also, 'I prefer cold weather which I feel more comfortable' is incorrect; it should be 'I prefer cold weather because I feel more comfortable' to properly connect the reason.
