I don't believe we've done this one.

I give it a F. Way too hot, dry, and sunny. Winter temperatures are pleasant, but not cool enough.

Edit: Forgot a poll. Perhaps a moderator could add one?

[dunno what to put here]

F. Too, hot, way to sunny.

D+. Way too hot in summer, too dry for my tastes. Winter is nice.

Added poll for you

D for excessive sun + heat + dryness. I like sun, but this much is boring. And sun & 100°F & and no shade is uncomfortable and possibly life-threatening. The nice cool season weather saves it from an F.

F. The only way it could be worse is if it were also insanely humid somehow, but on the other hand, Yuma is so dry that it may be even worse than super high humidity. Regardless, I'd be miserable there.

A- (a little too hot, but sun fine by me).

B+ summers are a bit hot for me (like in Vegas) but winters look fairly OK even with the cool mornings.

C. I wouldn't mind visiting this place once...

The sunniest city on earth deserves an A

I love Yuma, warm all year, no winter, just a little too dry, but I can live with that (lol).

Also, here is a cool vid of the summer monsoon and sandstorms in Yuma:

D - too hot, too little rain.. too dry.. I like climates with around 500 - 1000 mm of rain.
