Climate question

What would the climate of this world be like
it is almost the sme size as earth has the same gravity
it has two moons one about 70% the size of our Moon the other about 50%
the lighter blue seas are fresh water the darker ones are salty about as salty as our oceans
the atmosphere is the same

Here is an excellent link to a page about climate on earthlike planets.

As stated before, I would imagine pretty dry. But it also depends on elevation as well.

Interesting map. Did you use Fractal Terrains?

And whether this planet rotates like Earth or the other way round like Venus. On earth, the rotation leads to six zones: The polar zones, mostly eastern winds; the temperate zones, where wind comes mostly from the West; and the tropical zones, where the monsoon blows from NE (northern hemisphere) or SE. Over the seas the air gets humidity, and the wind brings it to the terra firma. And as Highlander said, mountains stop the wind that would bring rain.
