A: perfect dream climates with plenty of sunshine, good summers and mild to warm winters. Eg Perth, Brisbane, Crete, much of the southern med.
B: good climates but a couple of flaws - eg California (cold sea temperatures and lack of storms), northern Mediterranean (winters too cold), tropical climates (no variety year round and I do like a bit of seasonal change)
C: climates with an equal number of positives and flaws. The negatives of a cold winter outweighs the positives of a warm summer for me. Places I'd be fairly happy still though. E.g hot desert climates like found in the northern middle east with dry heat (not Dubai for example) and summer temps in the high 30s/low 40s but dry year round and dry heat.
D: climates with more negatives than positives. Either poor sunshine or a cold winter with regular snow/freezing temperatures. Eg London, lots of Western Europe, New York, Chicago, Boston.
E: same as D but a much longer cold season with poor summers eg lots of northern Europe including Scandinavia. Scotland, Ireland, Faroe islands, Denmark, eastern Europe. All for being too cold in winter/ not sunny enough or a mixture. These climates are unliveable for me but slightly better than an F.
F. Reserved for truly suicidal climates with no summer and no warmth ever and low sunshine hours. Considered putting climates like Dubai here too but I actually think I'd be much happier with sun even if half of the year is too hot to be outside comfortably
