A 'boring' climate for this forum's standards, but an interesting one nonetheless for being pretty wet for North African standards, in addition to being wetter than southern Spain and even parts of southern France (heck, it's wetter than London as well!)  |

B....I don't mind Med climates and this is a good one.

C- it is. "Winters" are clearly the winter period for where it is, but it's not cold enough, and that awful, hot, dry summer, one of the few key things I notice about med climates, same with Greece and CA. Also way too sunny I may add.

C+
June is a bit arctic, owing to all that seasonal lag (though it would be interesting having October warmer than May like that), and I'm not a fan of that kind of extreme aridity in summer, but overall good. I like how I'd still be able to wear a T-shirt on the majority of days in the winter. Summers are a tad weaker than ideal when they do arrive, but adequate. The sunshine total is perfect.

A, really amazing, could use just a bit more seasonality and spring rain

It's funny how London is used as a barometer for wetness.  |

That's true for sure. I have argued that London is still "wetter" than Sydney, or at least feels so (because of the higher evaporation rate), despite London receiving only half of Sydney's annual rainfall. |

Yeah, this is true for sure. Just going by natural vegetation, London is typical deciduous forest while wetter subtropical areas like Sydney and much of the SE US have sclerophyllous woodland vegetation. London is more “lush” as it is cooler, and thus feels rainier, not to mention it getting many days with light rain, whereas these subtropical areas get fewer days with rain. |

B+. Pretty pleasant year-round, but just enough of a winter cool-down to have a proper four season feel IMO. Good ratio of sunshine to rainfall and I like that there are no truly gloomy months.

I thought SE US is mostly deciduous vegetation. Or at least that's what it looked like on Google Street View. I could swear that I have seen bare trees (natural ones near rivers) in around New Orleans and other areas in the Deep South. I thought only the SW US is mostly sclerophyll?  |

The SE US has some species of evergreen oaks, like live oaks. Also though, while not sclerophyllous, the SE US also has many subtropical pine woodlands, mostly composed of longleaf and loblolly. These are common, maybe more so than the deciduous vegetation when you get into the Carolinas and Georgia. |

B+, temps, dews and sunshine are practically perfect but the unfortunate summer dry season prevents an A in my book
