I wonder what you all think. Some notes about the climate: Winter is quite variable so you occasionally get a real winter feeling but also breaks with warmer weather. The diurnal range is usually low, and often days will have unusual temperature trajectories, e.g. an early morning high followed by a cold front lowering the temperature. Fog and windy days are both pretty common. On rainy days, sometimes it rains heavily, sometimes it just drizzles all day. About half of winters see accumulating snow. Summer is more stable with more fair weather than winters, but still have some cloudy or rainy days to not get monotonous. The mornings are cool enough to go for a run in, but don't feel too chilly even when dressing lightly, and the evenings are still warm. Dew points are variable with both dry and humid heat being common. There tends to be a cool breeze most days. Most rain is brief and moderate to heavy, with thunderstorms occurring on about 30 days a year, mostly from spring to fall. Tropical cyclones are rare. Spring and fall are both mild, with fall being the rainiest season of the year. Locals have a variety of opinions about the weather, but spring seems to be the most liked season.  |

Solid B. Like a bit cooler and drier version of my real world climate. Agreeable temps/sunshine, a bit lacking in warm (70s) summer nights though.

C+. Inoffensive climate by global standard. It's just those prime summer months are unpleasant to do any activities outside. Calculating based on the latitude & sunshine percentage info, I made it for you the approximate hours:  |

A-, the temperatures are ideal and the rainfall pattern is not offensive. Honestly it looks like an improved version of here (Atlanta). No stupid 15ºF lows once a year either.

Was gonna give it a B then I saw high winds are common. arcleov2 do these High winds occur with cold fronts or precipitation or are there just regular day days with wind attacks? |

B
Solid climate. Summers are very comfortable, albeit a little cooler than ideal for summer. Winters are chilly but a massive improvement from my climate, and no hideous subzero Fahrenheit temps on record. No complaints about precipitation or sunshine either.

The winds aren't severe, any sustained wind over 50 km/h or 30 mph wouldn't normally occur more than once a month. I changed "high winds" to "windy days". The windier days are more likely to have rain, but dry windy days aren't exactly rare. |

The windier days are more likely to have rain, but dry windy days aren't exactly rare. 20 mph sustained winds is still horrible, at least 30 mph sustained probably gets some interesting gusts. I gotta go with a C+, fuck wind. Too bad, it’s a nice climate otherwise. |

It usually makes things feel much more uncomfortable. Rain with wind is fine, but again, I'd prefer a calm wind even during rainstorms. |

Arcleo City isn't extremely windy or anything like that, just a little more windy than SLO. To some degree I associate wind with being outside, and like the feel and sounds of it and leaves rustling. The days that are really windy (>15 mph/24 kph) occur with a frequency of maybe 5 a month and mostly come down to an excitement factor. And falling asleep to strong winds is quite relaxing. I do like to bike which can be annoying or even unsafe in very windy conditions, but most days are perfectly fine for that. |

C. Reasonable summers, 30 T-storm days is 30 more than here, okay sunshine hours - nice that winters are not hideously gloomy.

A-
Decent climate with good temperatures and precipitation. The only letdown is summer maximums being a little on the hot side, but it's still quite agreeable.

C+, good for most part, except fall and spring should be switched and a bit more rain, especially in summer.

When I say I hate wind, what I mean is that I hate wind above 15mph when it isn't raining and temps are below 75ºF, and I hate wind above 10mph when it is below 50ºF. I also never ever want wind to gust above 50mph, on any occasion. Therefore, when I say "calm" I don't mean zero mph wind, I just mean no stupid 10-15mph+ shit. |
