The best tropical climate in the world by far. I doubt there are even another one who even qualifies for a B- but this one instead is an A- for me for the extremely comfortable winters and manageable summers with sea breezes. Hope it has experienced no real warming since though because it wouldn't take much to lose a grade  It's essentially a lush Las Palmas and South Tenerife (B- caused by hotter nights but not really tropical due to being desert climates).  |

It's a C. Although for a tropical climate, very good  |

B- but it just needs more thunderstorm type weather and some higher record highs.

It's a solid B-. Like the above post, it would need more thunderstorms and higher record highs, which are quite low even for my modest standards. Also, it could use a tad more rain in summer.
But, being an island situated where it is, any thunderstorms, especially significant ones, will be quite rare. The annual precipitation will never deviate much from the averages either due to it's location.

Solid D. Boring and wet but pleasant.

E–. Only aspect(s) I like about this nasty climate are the precipitation amount and potentially high storm activity. Otherwise, it is far too tropical for my liking.

I assume there are aplenty in the low 40's in the Southern Hemisphere due to the absence of hot water streams? Also, in Japan surely there are lots in the 30's considering how into whaling they are and how cool winters can be there? |

Also, in Japan surely there are lots in the 30's considering how into whaling they are and how cool winters can be there? Whales are found in the lowest latitudes between Africa, Madascar and Australia – the South Indian sector of the Southern Ocean. In those particular waters, they are found as low as 32° S, and as low as 34° S in the Tasman Sea...perhaps even lower. Just to give you a nice little hint: Heard Island and Bouvet Island are both in the South Indian Sector on the Kerguelen Plateau. |

Too warm, sunny, and humid. Rainfall isn't even that impressive.

Another yawn-worthy climate. I'll give it an E for being pleasant.

A- winters a bit cool but otherwise still a great climate.

B. Winter minimums are too cool to make it an A.

Yeah, dunno what to put here said the same.
By semi-tropical maritime standards, Easter Island is a B-. I can't rate every climate with the same standards but there are of course some climates that are always gonna be an A or F.

B-. As good as a boring climate can be.

I'll give this one a B, ideally I'd want a bit more variety but boring climates that are really comfortable all year like this deserve a pretty high grade.
