Got ya! This is not the Buxton I live in, this is the much superior climate version in Norfolk. It is a small village compared to my town, but it is much milder, sunnier and drier. I give it a D. Gets more sun and warmth than here, and a lot more thunderstorms. But it also appears to be capable of getting much colder nights.  |

D- liveable but boring as hell. Essentially looks like a copypasta of Northampton with slightly more sun  For that part of England and the latitude I'd expect more than that. Wrexham will be roughly the same but still be a solid D because of the longer summer evenings. |

Meh, it's a pretty generic bland English climate, would be a noticeable step up from where I live though so I'll rate it one grade higher, which means a C-.

D. Very typical UK climate, boring.

E. It would have got a D- but for those cold record lows.

It's funny when people look at climate averages in the UK and say it's boring, but when you live here the weather is actually very interesting. The UK has some of the most interesting weather in the world, which keeps me fascinated with recording it - due to the variety of different air-mass and synoptic set ups possible at any time of year - and its changeability. The weather is not to the extremes of some climates such as continental ones, but it beats most subtropical/desert/Mediterranean climates out the water in terms of weather interest.

I think the UK is interesting in terms of being able to get every single weather event but the fact that whatever event its always watered down which takes the fun factor out of it. |

Yes, having more intense heat/cold snaps and bigger thunderstorms and snowstorms would improve it somewhat. I often think after a thunderstorm or snow attempt "is that it?". But it makes good efforts more memorable as well.

I'd say it's "interesting" in regards to it being difficult to predict. I guess Autumn and Winter can also throw up some decent wind storms.
Not an interesting place in terms of temperature variations and thunderstorms, though.

Temperature seems to be more variable in summer than winter, which makes that season more interesting, except that winter can of course offer decent snow (at least here). Agree on storms, though there have been decent ones even here in Buxton (though I've seen much better elsewhere in UK). Last year was complete shit for storms however, not a single overhead one all year. But, that's the only year so far in which that was the case.

But it makes good efforts more memorable as well. Yes pretty much.. Its simply due to our oceanic nature everything is pathetic and weak. |

Yuck...I still don't know why they have such relatively cloudy summers considering the long days?

C. I like that it's drier than Sheffield with marginally better summers. A bit too cloudy though especially in winter.

Too cloudy and very slow spring startup, but atleast hot weather is rare there I suppose. Probably C- or D, not so sure.

D, it’s essentially a cooler version of London with wetter summers. Meh

C-, it's a worse version of Vancouver due to the gloomy summers. Liveable but pretty bland and dull. Buxton where the author lives would be D+.
