 I have a different name on file that I'd like to keep private, but Outpost City works considering the harsh tundra (ET) climate of this place, located at a latitude of 64'N on a planet significantly colder than Earth. Winters are very cold, stormy, and often windy; thundersnow is commonplace, as are blizzard conditions. "Summer" is a lot like a Wisconsin November, except with 20-hour day lengths. Average annual snowfall is impressive at 483.1 inches (1,227 cm), while sunshine is scant at 1442 hours for the year. Stormy tundra climates like these are actually the types of climates I consider most interesting (though a -100'F record low or something would only add to the interest factor), but in terms of how much I like this climate, it's an easy and obvious F. It has literally always been below room temperature on record. |

D
It's pretty bad even for me. Only good thing is the snow and there is no excessive heat.
I like the snowy/sunny combo though!

This reminds me of the climate of Cape Dyer, Nunavut.

The whole winter is very cloudy. This reminds me of the climate of Cape Dyer, Nunavut. I'd imagine Cape Dyer would be a lot drier, though, eh? |

I wouldn't particularly describe any time of year as sunny, considering no month has more than half of possible sunshine, especially not March or October with only 21%. In a month like March, there would probably be 2-3 clear days and 3-5 partly cloudy days, the rest mostly cloudy or overcast. The summer months are very similar to a Wisconsin November. |

Obvious F.
Did you really think this would get anything other than Ds or Fs? Pointless thread, make something that you donβt know everyoneβs rating for.

Obvious F. Did you really think this would get anything other than Ds or Fs? could still show up and give this a higher rating.  I wasn't exactly fishing for a high rating average, though; this is just a fun climate I dug out of my folder full of 'em. |

But itβs an extreme cold climate, thatβs obviously gonna get an F or D from all but 1 or 2 posters. Itβs been there done that too so itβs just a boring thread. Thereβs a lot more interesting rate the climate threads where itβs not an obvious grade for most people. |

It has been for a long time now. I'm just sharing my art with other people. |

It's too snowy, even for me. I could handle 200 or even 300" of snow, but more than that is just pointless and come June or July I need it to be able to melt before the following winter.
I guess I'd give it a B+ if this could actually exist, but the real grade is a U for unrealistic (it's not possible to get those snow totals with -25c winter means).

F automatically for the winters, yet alone the rest of the year. Winter 24/7 no thanks

F. Barrow with less variability. Make the summer average high at least 55, and I will rate it at least a C.

This reminds me of the climate of Cape Dyer, Nunavut. I'd imagine Cape Dyer would be a lot drier, though, eh? Yes, but no real climates can match it. Cape Dyer has an extreme combination of snow and cold. It's not your normal high arctic place. Seriously, look at the climate normals. It's extreme, and I can't think of anywhere that would be a better match than this. Good one @strawhats ! climate.weather.gc.ca/climate_normals/results_e.html?stnID=1740&dispBack=1Record high of 19.4C (67F) Yearly average of -11.0C (12.2F) Yearly snowfall of 566cm / 222 inches with regular summer snow 300 days a year with snow depth >= 1cm, from mid-September to mid-July. 266 days a year with snow depth >= 20 cm Average depth reaches 100 cm in spring.
Edit: Climate rating is an F. Interesting but horrible to actually live in.

Crunch41 wow, kind of uncanny how similar the temperature profiles are. Cape Dyer is nuts; also an obvious F from me. Good find, @strawhats!
