I was thinking about a series of climates in which I think of the stereotypical oceanic climate (and other types) and put it into a table but can't edit it once I press "show preview" on wikipedia editor. Will try and do it for each climate type (oceanic, subtropical, continental, desert, semi-desert, equatorial, tropical etc. etc. etc.).  So here it is! A mix of UK winters and more continental european summers with decent rainfall year-round and very stable, gloomy autumns. I'll give it a D/D-, although May-September is ok for an oceanic climate it quickly gets gloomy and very stable by october. Winters are cold, generally windy and wet with occasional snow. Submit your own if you guys want to, to see how similar everyone's visions are of an oceanic climate. |

C. The precipitation pattern/rain days are unusual for a typical oceanic climate though.

@b87 more typical for you would mean an autumn/winter peak in precip days like cardiff? Looks like parts of NZ and France (the latter might be due to continental influence, though) have unusual precip patterns for oceanic climates (not the standard autumn-winter peak)

My stereotypical oceanic climate would have colder summer highs and warmer winter lows than your climate. Also a lower record high. Everything else is pretty much the same.

Precip days are always lowest in the summer and highest in winter. |

@kronan that looks a bit gloomier and colder than Bergen with abnormally mild cold records even compared to Bordeaux and Bilbao! Definitely not like the average conditions experienced by most oceanic climate residents!

D/D+.
Too continental to be a stereotypical oceanic climate, especially the summers which are too warm.

C/C+. Too cool year-round and too cloudy in winter. My prototypical oceanic climate would have summer highs around 23C, less summer rain, and 1700-1800 hrs of sun.

B–; crummer lows too stable, as well as winters yielding too much rainfall and not enough snowfall. Thunderstorm activity looks non-existant, as commonplace for an oceanic shithole.
That is most certainly not a typical maritime proper (i.e. Cfb) climate; far too much continentality, alongside diurnal ranges being rather broad for a maritime location.

I would even go a bit colder on those record lows personally! also cooler summer nights in the fifties for all summer months! |

I wouldn't call a 9.2C diurnal range, that broad for an Oceanic climate - Motueka has an average diurnal range of about 12C, while neighbouring Tapawera has 13C, and both places get about 50% more rainfall than the climate posted by Noodleman Eh? 25.6° – 13.0° = 12.6° C diurnal range, not 9.2° C..!! I refer chiefly to midsummer, mind you. Annually, it reminds me quite a bit of Oberon, NSW—certainly not "oceanic"! |

sari I would make the stereotypical Dfa have a bit colder winter averages, like Des Moines?

My vision of a subtropical north american clmate!  Cold, snowy and wet winters followed by a spring and autumn peak in precipitation. Summers are warm and fairly stable with a wet start and end but july being quite dry. This is with the same measures as the oceanic climate so pure guessing and no allowed to go over the climate until i've posted it  |

Moron Record lows would be a lot colder than that for a north american subtropical climate with similar averages. Here’s a climate a few degrees warmer on avg than your creation en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knoxville,_Tennessee

Yeah I think I went a bit stereotype-y on the record lows and snowfall but it's a kinda creative idea Not everything has to be 100% realistic  SImilar record lows to knoxville in winter! |

Moron I don't consider that subtropical at all. It's a 4-season temperate climate as winters are still cold. IMO subtropical climates need a much warmer annual mean like at least 16C. This is my vision of a North American subtropical climate: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacksonville,_Florida#Climate Subtropical climates should be fairly close to tropical climates and I think that climate is more temperate than subtropical. Not trying to correct you though. Just mentioning that I don't think that's anything close to subtropical.
