Finally got around to posting this one. I've made a few changes to my ideal climate such as:
* Made mean max/min temps more realistic
* Made diurnal ranges a bit larger
* Evened out precipitation pattern a bit and made it slightly wetter
Record highs/lows are 1991-2020 ONLY, and note that I've extrapolated averages from August onwards because creating 30 years worth of daily data for all 12 months was too much work.
To briefly describe the weather patterns, precipitation in fall/winter/spring predominately falls from frontal systems in the form of showers and sometimes T-storms, with dry, mostly sunny conditions predominating in between; cloudy conditions seldom last more than 3-4 days at a time regardless of the time of year. Summers are predominated by dry, sunny conditions with the subtropical ridge in control, though occasional low-pressure systems bring better moisture advection/instability and thus see T-storms.
Average daily max/min temperatures, if anyone's interested:
