If we define Northern Europe as the Nordics and Baltics, this has got to be the best climate for many of you guys. Kaunas peobably has the warmest May-Sep period of that region along with Vilnius, with sunshine that's good for being so far inland (Anhityk for example gets 200h less in his Estonian paradise). The weatherbox is 2002-2018 from infoclimat. I checked with the official 81-10 figures and everything seemed to be pretty much in line with what you'd expect. June and July record lows are obviously false but the rest seems to check out. Precipitation is 650-700mm annually btw.  Honestly, for me this is a tie with Lund. The summer warmth difference isn't huge but it's noticeable more, enough so that it might appreciate the colder but snowier winters of Kaunas. Only problem is March, October and November are much colder in Kaunas, so I think I'd still pick Lund ovet Kaunas though. Idk. It's a C- together with Lund. Very good for Northern Europe. What do you think? Is this your favorite climate in The Nordics+Baltics? |

P for Poor Climate Box Layout.
Also, precipitation data is a must—saying "it averages 650-700 mm anually" tells me jack shit. I require adequately-presented precipitation data, so to display its annual distribution i.e. precipitation peak, as well as precipitation frequency.

It doesn't take a rocket science to figure out it's pretty much the same as every other climate in the Nordics and Baltics. It's driest in the spring and wettest in summer. |

Dear boy...you are very sick today. I asked you not only for the precipitation data to be displayed, but also the precipitation frequency of which you have not even bothered to state; on how many days does it fall? That question lay un-answered. |

I asked you not only for the precipitation data to be displayed, but also the precipitation frequency of which you have not even bothered to state; on how many days does it fall? That question lay un-answered. It's pretty common for precipitation frequency to be left out, and thresholds aren't standardized anyway. If you're really that autistic that you can't assess a climate that's near identical to the countless of other climates nearby that you've rated before if you don't get to ogle ALL of the data yourself, just go to the wikipedia page with the older 81-10 averages yourself. What else do you wanna know? Average amount of snowflakes per square centimeter per second? Average amount of mosquitoes per qubic meter? You really should be able to fill in some blanks yourself. I get that infoclimat isn't perfect, but 02-18 better represents the current climate than 81-10 does in this region, and there is no official data available for that period so I had to go with infoclimat. Wanted to do 91-18 but sunshine was only available from 2001. Precipitation was much higher compared to the 81-10 normal than other places in the region, which is why I omitted that part of the weatherbox instead giving a ballpark figure. |

I refuse to rate any climate that is represented by terrible sourcing . Why do the warm weather lovers on here botev so god damn hard with crappy sources?

It's the best source apart from national met agencies, which in this case wasn't available, making infoclimat the best source for more recent data. |

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KaunasHere's the wiki box; of course it's not a great climate. But compared to the northern baltics it's an improvement. Still an E or something like that. Too cold year round.

Hard to compare any place with Sweden, when Swedish wiki pages are full of Botev year samples  Though judging by Copenhagen, I'm guessing Denmark and southern Sweden are still better en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaunas#Climate |

It's good but not great. More continental would be better. Precip pattern and days from the wiki box is good. B+
