Located high in a wedge-shaped valley, just west of where two mountain ranges converge, Halemerri Pass has not only seasonal, but also diurnal, variations in temperature.
Because of its unique topography, compression effects occur that cause summer temperatures well in excess of what would usually be expected at its latitude and altitude.
Though snowfall is statistically great, snow generally does not accumulate day-to-day due to the mild daytime temperatures, except in mid-winter, or in unusually cold winters.
B. Certainly an interesting climate, one of the best of the "insane" ones I've seen. I like the fact that despite the very large diurnal range it's not a desert and gets rain and snow in winter. Also it's good it's sunny year round. Very interesting and not that hellish at all IMHO.

A-/B+, I'm a big fan of huge diurnal ranges, very good sunshine amounts too!
C. Very strange climate. I really don't have any idea what it would be like to expierence this climate day after day so I don't consider my grade to be very accurite.
I can't believe you rated it an A How can the average low be so far from the average high without the place being VERY dry.
