D-, only not an F+ because it's Friday and I'm in a good mood...are you sure those summer highs are right btw? Surely it has been higher than 98F in Paris - when I was in France in August 2003 almost the whole country apart from Normandy/Brittany was above that - I thought the record was 105 or so?
Yup, that's what I was thinking. Paris-Orly recorded 40.0°C in August 2003, while Paris-Montsouris saw a nighttime low of 25.5°C the same month, viz :
On this, you are making record highs averages.
That means virtually every day in summer is hitting the Farenheit century.
Would rate this a C-, as the cooler months are pleasant.
Most record high minimums are still fairly tame.
I'm afraid not, the summer days are quite sunny and convection is hindered by the dryness. T-storms would be local yet rather violent. Only half a dozen days would have a proper stormy front passing by.

No, I made an average with all the daily records. Like dhdh posted, the record highs are abit higher (105 in July to 61 in January). Though from 59 to 61 the difference is little, the warm records are very steady in the winter season. So yes it hasn't made it to 62 in January since 1873 in Paris. I'm won't complain about this.
Meanwhile, this are the records highs for BA in every month. Not too high in the summer (considering BA has very hot summers, it never got to be more than 110 f here) but very high in winter. Consider we do have a "little summer" inside every August right after "Tormenta de Santa Rosa" that always rise temperatures and sometimes it gets to be 30 celsius. This happen every year. Its also not uncommon to reach 25 celsius every June or July a couple of days.
With this record highs, BA seems like Singapore or something.
Comparing it to Paris, cant believe the diference.
Your Nov, Dec and especially Feb record highs seem suprisingly low. Also interesting to note that August has had a hotter record than September and October.
Here's Melbourne for comparison: (celcius / Farhenheit)

Isn't Melbourne unusually prone to summer heat waves, especially compared to their mild summers?
