Below freezing year round and too cold and dry. Nope. But like someone said, if a choice between this or someplace hot and dry year round. I'd choose this.

This place looks exotic. I wonder if they're in need of physicians because I would love to work there.

82% give it an 'F' grade. That pretty well dispenses with the notion that people in general prefer polar climates. Incidentally, the "rate the climates" with the highest average rating hitherto are the Gold Coast and Easter Island, which also happen to be among my most favourite climates (to be fair, my other favourites, the Canary Islands and Jamestown, did not fare so well -- people didn't seem to like their aridity).

Well said ChesterNZ. No properly mentally adjusted person would tolerate such deathly and dangerous conditions to struggle against day in day out. And the ones who claim they would love it are just trolls. We know who they are tho.

If a poll was created with Singapore's climate, I would also rate it an F. I need my four seasons, not one.

There is one about Singapore, go back about 20 pages and you'll probably find it.
It gets an F from me on every front.

November through February looks like a decent winter to me. The problem is, that's summer there! I gave it a D because for those months I would probably be fairly comfortable, but the rest of the year would be too cold for me. And yet, I'd still take it over a Southern U.S. Summer.
