Let's rate México!
México is a country with a very diverse range of climates, from tropical in the south to tropical highland in DF, arid deserts in the north-central area, and even a small piece of Mediterranean just across the border from San Diego. Since most of these threads have been for temperate climates, I figure we can get some tropical in here as well.
I rate México's climate a C+ as most of the country is generally too dry but there are some wet areas around mountains and in the southern part of the country. It doesn't have as diverse of a climactic range as the mid-latitude United States, and almost all of the cooler climates are found in mountains. One advantage over other countries is that it has a west and east coast, which creates different precipitation patterns and increases climactic diversity. Most of the tropical climates in México have a very active and stormy wet season as well.

Ouch. Too late to change the poll now.

E; mostly too warm or dry, but it does offer a fair bit of climate diversity.

Not sure if there’s any Fs, lots of Ds and Es, don’t think there’s any Cs.
E+/D- for me.

I rate most tropical climates and tropical highland climates in the C range, so I'll give a C.

For me northern lowland Mexico is pretty bad, along with places like mérida, but the southern highlands like Mexico city and San cristóbal de Las casas are fairly pleasant, but could use a chill/dormancy season. I think the country deserves a C- overall.

Highland and the Baja California subtropical coastline = excellent. The rest? Overall that's a weak C then.

C-
Some nice, mild semi-arid climates to the northwest and decent subtropical highland climates. Rest is too hot for me.

C-. Much of the country is highland, pushing the grade up. However, there are quite alot of savannahs and hot deserts, so this is a compromise grade.
