I know the Eurasian continent has different boundaries depending on where in the world you are. For this thread's sake:
1. The line in Russia will be the Ural Mountains to the Caspian Sea
2. Turkey, Georgia, Armenia, and Azerbaijan are in Asia
Pick your favorite climate in Asia and post it here. I'm much more excited for Asia versus boring African Climates

Fairly quick look but this looks pretty solid, basically ideal rainfall, annual temps and decent sun. Only nitpicky problems I have with it is January being a bit too cold (Dec and Feb are fine enough) and winter being a bit too cloudy, but it's things I could still live with fine. Plus I believe it's close to the famous Turkish hiking trail that I've forgotten the name of. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adana |

Despite its stable summers, I'll go with Tehran due entirely to its handsome winters. Just look at that snowy days>rainy days ratio with those lovely temps (6° C average high); 100% cold fronts, 0% warm fronts…just like an Aussie winter! |

Tough one as Asia covers an enormous region. But my pick would be Bandung, Indonesia. Not a whole lot of seasonality but temps are perfect. Nice and warm during the day and just slightly chilly overnight. Plus it has one of the highest annual thunderstorm totals in the world. ![]()  Honourable mention to Phan Thiết , for when I need some beach weather. |

Almaty is like an upgraded Tehran: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Almaty#ClimateFor me, there are MANY great climates in Asia so it is impossible to narrow it down to 5 or even 10. But off the top of my head, my top picks are: 1. Asahikawa  2. Karakol 3. Almaty 4. Shinjo 5. Irkutsk 6. Vladikavkaz 7. Anywhere in the Caucasus mountains in Georgia/Russia |

Not my favorite climate, but one with an unusual rainfall pattern. A dry summer, very wet fall, and another wet period in spring. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LankaranI also have to mention en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mu%C5%9F. Warm dry summers and very snowy winters. The only climate I've found like this is en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dras, and I don't trust the data for that climate. The diurnal range is too high in winter and I don't believe the -40s record lows either. |

LOL no, that's a big fucking downgrade from Tehran. The fact that Almaty still manages 4 rainy days with –8° / 1° C averages, tells me that warm fronts frequently occur there in winter. Tehran, on the other hand, gets no gaybo warm fronts at all. |

Almaty beats Gayhran during actual winter. I mean, look at this warm-front-infested tripe...    |

I mean, look at this warm-front-infested tripe... With all undue respect, you've wilfully ignored the snowy days right underneath the rainy days, not to mention the significantly milder average temps. What are you trying to show here? Whatever it is, you'd better cease it immediately—for to spare yourself the utter embarassment of coming off like a subhuman. Tehran's cold front > warm front ratio, is a thousandfold superior to that of Almaty. |

Tehran's cold front > warm front ratio, is a thousandfold superior to that of Almaty. I like you Angler but I don't understand why you think Tehran gets more "cold fronts" in winter. It has more RAIN days than SNOW days. Who cares about the average temperature, it doesn't matter. Almaty is colder and thus, gets more "cold fronts". Almaty has MORE snow days than rain days in winter but somehow that is caused by more warm fronts than cold fronts? Sorry, that just doesn't make sense.  Almaty is colder and snowier in winter than Tehran and has more cold fronts! |

^Well of course it's colder, which is exactly why it's worse (for me); and snowier on an absolute scale as well.
But that is not what I was referring to, not even close; how come Alamaty still manages to get rain with those frigid average temps in winter? Simple, the only possible explanation for such scorcery is…drum roll…warm fronts. Precip can still come with above-average weather in Alamaty (AKA warm fronts), which is not the case in Tehran—in Tehran, precip only arrives with below-average weather (AKA cold fronts).
Do I make myself CLEAR?!

Do I make myself CLEAR?!No!  I just, I just thought you had a lapse in your superior judgment but I now see that isn't that case, seeing as how you remain resolute in your adamant assertion that Gayhran is indeed a more severe climate than Gaylmaty. But, how do you know Tehran doesn't get its bulk of cold weather under dry conditions? It seems like one of those shit places that initially gets cold with little or no snow. Then the snow comes once precip arrives but quickly changes to rain and melts the snow away, aka an overrunning event. That is my hypothesis and you would be wise to take it under advisement, you ill-tempered cretin. |

That is my hypothesis and you would be wise to take it under advisement, you ill-tempered cretin. Pretty blasted obvious—the amount of snowy days compared to total precip days; majority of them are snowy days: 12 precip days, yielding 9 days in which snow falls (therefore it's mostly sleet and rain/snow mix, but I love that). And, again, please don't ignore the average temps, because the colder the winters are for me…the more snow I need to feel satisfied. The milder the winters, the less snow I need to feel satisfied. Get me now? Tehran's winter temps are just like those in my dream climate (6° C average highs), with ample snowfall. Whereas Alamaty is far, far too cold for me with not enough snow for such dastardly conditions (I don't even want to think about –30° C). |

Those are rain days, not precip days, if the climate box is to be believed. IF it is in fact 9 snow days to 12 "precip" days, along with those average temperatures, then I would definitely agree with you. That would be very impressive. |
