I made four climates where I chose the coldest, warmest, driest, and wettest months on record for Raleigh and made climates for a full year out of them. How would you rank them?



For me:
Cold: A
Hot: C-
Wet: D+
Dry: D-

I choose the coldest one, even though it's still much warmer than I'd like.

It's also a bit unusual that in the coldest year, January received so little snow with such temperatures and precipitation.

^^ I agree with what ksolina said to a T. That year would be impressively cold for Raleigh though, could easily fit in as a climate in the Northeast US somewhere.

I'd have to pick the dry one as the best, due to the temperatures being more favourable for me. Then I'd go for the wet one, the cold and hot in that order. so:

Dry: B
Wet: C-
Cold: D
Hot: D-

Cold: B
Wet: C (I like how it's wet without too many rain days, otherwise it would be lower)
Dry: D
Hot: E

Cold: 84 / B. Good, but summers could stand to be warmer.
Hot: 64 / D. Too hot in winter, spring, and fall. Even summers are a little warm.
Dry: 16 / F-. Horrible.
Wet: 62 / D-. I like rain, but this is just excessie.
