I've been thinking about creating my own four-season dream climate, and finally got around to it! It's located somewhere in Xinjiang  |

Gior, no snowfall data?  Well, it is sunny as hell so that brings down the grade a bit and winter is too short but I like the temperatures for sure in winter. Nice typical fast spring warm-up and there is even an Indian summer. I'll give it a C+ |

Actually I wanted help with the snowfall data lol. Not sure what would be realistic snowfall data given the temps and the precipitation levels?

C. Winters are too cold and summers are slightly too hot. Precipitation is a bit low. Shoulder seasons are excellent for having such cold winters though.

B+; summers look epic, but winters are too dry and sunny, as well as yielding too much warmth.

Too sunny, too hot summer, too harsh dec/jan. Dislike the seasonal lead = hot, horrible May, and too dry as well, especially during the parched winters., with too extreme records (especially the heat ones could be considerably milder for a continental climate). Basically northern China-- more Hebei than Xinjiang though?
I would go with Worcester, MA or something like that if I have to select a real continental climate (New Bedford is better but questionably continental)

Too sunny, warms up too fast and the warm season lasts too long. But it's not bad and certainly not boring! I give it a C+

B+. Too warm in April and May and not enough snow but otherwise it’s quite good.

I'll give it the benefit of the doubt and give it C- since it at least should have a decent snow cover in winter and summer humidity is not too bad. Days are too hot in peak summer though, there's no denying that. Nights would be okay with cooler highs, but now might feel more oppressive than they'd otherwise done. The real jewels here are May and September.

I’d say 5-7” in January, 2-4” in February, every few years in March, ~1” in November and 4-6” in December.
So maybe 12-18” for the whole year.

Not bad gior congrats on learning what a real climate looks like... I gave it a B. This is your dream climate, I refuse to recognize the other ones. Which btw I have confiscated and thrown away.

Yahya Sinwar you still haven't constructed your own dream climate! We'd have to rate it!

B-, too cold in winter but the warm season actually isn't bad. I like the evenly-distributed sunshine

D, horrific cold dry winters but the rest of the year is pretty good and somewhat makes up for it.

C, quite good for a continental climate, especially for Xinjiang. At least there's a long warm season (although mid-summer is a little too hot); a fair amount of rain and good amounts of sunshine
