OK, please rate this climate!! If I could control the weather, this is exactly what I'd have.
Please note that there is not a single place on earth that has this kind of temperature and precip pattern. It is all make believe, but I'd like you still to rate it.
Thanks guys and gals! Be brutally honest too when rating it!
-Jan: -25F/-45F no wind chill, not a cloud in the sky for half the days and then dense fog the other half.
-Feb: -20/-40 same as jan
rapid warm up ........

-June: 88/75, H,H & H 20 of 30 days then 10 days of rain and fog with temps in 60's
-July: 98/63 Hot and dry with big diurnal temp change. Dewpoints in the 20's....so bone dry!!

-Nov: 45/25 A mixed bag of sun, clouds, warm and cold days. Temps range from 70 to 10!
D. Winters too cold, summers too hot. Too much rain and wind (the 2 things I hate the most) during the shoulder seasons. Sounds like the first half of Sept and 10 days in May are the only pleasant parts of the year.
The "rapid warm up" saved it from an F

I rated your climate a D.
I actually like your temperatures for March, April, May, June, August, September, October, and November(8 months of the year).
However, November, December, and especially January(3 of those months) just ruin it for me. Way too bitterly cold. Below just 15 degrees Farenheight and I still feel cold even if I wear lots of layers, my face is frozen, and I could barely breathe in that air(especially since extreme cold air is usually very dry).
I also think the average highs in July are too hot and so strange to deal with after the 3 months of bitter cold temperatures.
I think there are too many extremes between temperature/sunshine/clouds/and precipitation and this is coming from someone that likes sunshine, clouds, and precipitation extremes!
There seems to be way too much seasonal variation. I like some seasonal variation but much less extremes than that.
Actually, there are some places in this planet that get temperature extremes similar to that such as Minneapolis, and Denver in the USA, Winnipeg, Calgary, Edmonton, Regina, and Saskatoon in Canada as well as Harbin and Urumqi in China.
C - interesting climate! Love the fog, wind, and rain. Don't care for the winters and summers (except for the summer rain), but spring and fall are nice. Would prefer a cloudier fall though.
Ouch, that's a nasty climate. I would never become acclimated. Sweating my ass off or having it be so cold that my glasses would freeze... which poison should I drink?
I gave it a D, but the constant wind during the 3-4 months out of the year that are tolerable would make me bring it into F territory. I might as well be living on the Moon with those temperature differences! Looks like you live to experience the extremes, papafox!
D-
Hot summers are good (dry or humid) but those winters are abysmal!
