Rate my dream climate (Cfa/Dfa) (snowy, hot, warm, record)

[Ariete]

Ok, I posted a version of this in another thread earlier, but adjusted it to be a bit more realistic. I've taken the best parts of a rather continental climate like Chicago and mixed it with oceanic influences, like Vienna.
It is mainly a climate based on Central or (former) Eastern European averages, and might appear a bit dry but gloomy to many parts of the USA. The winters are rather cold for most Europeans as well, but on the contrary, summers are sunny and warm.

I'm not going for freak weather changes like in Denver, but a stable and predictable climate that has few, but possible surprises. Heavily influenced both by the continent and the ocean, this region experiences truly four distinctive seasons.

B+. Perhaps too warm between June-August and maybe I'd get bored of all that spring/summer sunshine, but otherwise very decent.

[Galaxyman]

D+. okay summers but terrible overcast cold winters.

B

A bit on the boring and sunny side, but not too bad.

[Rozenn]

Very nice, B+. I like the gloomy winters with small diurnal range, sunshine distribution is perfect and summers are alright. It didn't get an A mainly because it's not wet enough. Summer record highs could higher and I'm not a fan of the significant seasonal lag in winter. But still pretty decent to my tastes.

A watered down Magner. D.

A good climate, gets a B+ from me. Nice seasonal variety though ideally would like more precipitation and a more even distribution of sunshine.

I don't like it much. Make it 10F colder in every month and I'd like it. As it is, it is too warm in all seasons, the summer nights particularly, it's too sunny, it's too boring, and it doesn't have enough snow. On the plus side, I like the precipitation figure. My grade is C.

[Snownut]

I voted C . The summer nights are too warm and about twice the annual precipitation I'd like.

I think it is wonderful that people love all different types of climates, it would be horrible if everyone was wanting to move to the same place?

Yet I wonder about how much people actually do seek out the same climate? Think about in our homes.

When it is cold people turn on the heat, when it is hot the AC, or fans.

It seems most people like their homes dry upper 60's and 70's (ac in summer) and then about the same in temps in the winter with a humidifier running.

So perhaps a large percentage of people would try to move if we didn't have easy ways to live in comfort?

Would you really like the climate where you live if you had to be "in it" all the time? I wouldn't
