Kamloops is the best but it needs more thunderstorms.

Any individual settlement you'd name the worst? Whatever is in Atlantic Canada or Pacific Russia at 50 °N ... Sept-Iles is pretty bad. |

As for climate of 48th parallel in Europe - there is Budapest not far from Vienna and according to 1981-2010 climatological norm, the climate of Budapest is already classified as humid subtropical (Köppen Cfa), with averages above 0°C in the coldest month and above 22°C in the warmest. However, Budapest is a very little bit more southern than Vienna (47°29′N).

Best is probably Lincoln or Sheffield, UK. Some places in Poland or Germany have slightly warmer summers but I don't like their cold winters.
Worst, tie between various places in Siberia or inland Canada.

43 degrees North Best is Tully Heiberg Forest: Good temperatures, snowy winters, too wet overall. Worst is Turpan--too dry too hot. Nukus is similar. Close, but not good enough Madison: Slightly too warm year-round, but a good four season climate. Vladivostok: too wet in summer. It should have stable snow cover in winter, if it snows enough. Talgar: Summer is too dry, but does it get thunderstorms? I don't know. Winter looks nice and I like that mountains are nearby. Close, but not bad enough Coos Bay: Drizzly cloudy winters and boring cool summers. Crater Lake: Colder version of Coos Bay, but with way too much snow. Darwin Ranch: Interesting subarctic climate with huge diurnals, but it's too cold at night, frost is common even in summer.
43 degrees South: no climates are continental enough. Best: Esquel, Trevelin, and Christchurch have similar averages. I'll pick Esquel as it has the coldest winter and the Patagonian climates have much lower record lows. Worst: Hokitika: Extremely wet and oceanic all year. Honorable Mention for the Chatham Islands: Windy and cloudy all year, no heat or cold. |

As Razza said, I don't like cold at all, I can handle heat, especially with low humidity, but prefer temps in the 10° to 30°C range, and with lots of sun and little rain |

I'm from 45N (or just a bit under there)... Best: Eugene/Portland, Oregpn: Bordeaux (winters are a bit too mild and too prone to heatwaves) and Banja Luka, Bosnia (too continental) are honorary contenders... Limoges is excellent (A/A+) but a touch further north at 45'50'') Worst: Kyzylorda, Kazakhstan & Karamay, Xinjiang (far too dry and continental)... Changchun & Harbin are up there due to the severe cold and winter dryness I'm now living at 42N (or just under there).... Best: Ponferrada, Spain (a bit dry)..... with Braga, Portugal (too wet and mild winters) close behind... Worst: Nukus, Uzbekistan (far too dry and continental) or Korla, Xinjiang parts of the alps and mongolia at high altitude may be worse... but I didn't count these.... Cadeau would you pick the same places for my latitudes or somewhere different? We have similar overall climate preferences, but might have different tolerance ranges.... |

Freiburg's Wiki averages in summer are a bit rigged, though. Average highs/lows (1981-2010) are 26.1 / 15.8 °C in July and 25.7 / 15.4 °C in August. |
