Snowy Spring Is a Incredible Climate on the planet Nuthera. Snowy Spring has a Climate that I assure you has NOT been overdone on these forums and I seriously doubt anyone one here has even dreamt up prior to today!
Nuthera is a planet with a jet-stream over 10x stronger than our jet stream on earth. On one side of the jet stream is a frigid, dry neverending wasteland. On the other is a Scorching hot desert. The only moisture on the planet flows along the northern and southern hemisphere jet-stream. The northern jet stream (the one concerning Snowy Spring alternates between 55N and 45N over the course on the year. This latitude range is the only fertile and wet area on the planet. At approximately 51 degrees north (the latitude of snowy spring) the jet stream briefly stalls for about two months in the spring and one in the fall. It is during this time period that Snowy Spring earns its namesake. I will continue to create fictional climates for this Imaginary planet and may post fictional forecasts for Snowy Spring on this thread!
So...would you like to live in/vacation to Snowy Spring?
Please rate above and discuss the climate and my possible oversights in creating it below!
Only if there is something geographically or botanically interesting about the place. I wouldn't visit it just for its rubbish climate.
Located In Snowy Spring is an incredible mountain Ski Resort famous for its summer skiing where you can experience skiing with 85F highs, 65F lows, a summery breeze and over 100 ft of fresh snow! You can also experience the snowiest month imaginable with over 500in of powder fallong in the month of May alone!
how can the average high in november be the record low in october?
literally an overnight seasonal change starting exactly on november 1st
The temperature gradient descends so steeply that while teh daily average on November 1st is 51/66 (not far from that of october it descends so rapidly (to below 0F at the end of the month) that the averages are what they are.

I wouldn't bet on that. While I have no experience with skiing, I can imagine skiing quality would be poor with melting snow.

true but with november's record low being december's average high as well, its a bit too much of a coincidence and gives the feeling that the steep changes in the season happen at the beginning of each month
EDIT: forgot to mention, would love to go skiing in the epic snow in early june and then go white water rafting in the violent rivers that form from the melting snow in late july...
just my taste but i see no reason to have siberia for 4 months of the year so i can't give it more than a D+. once temperatures go into the -40 range its dangerous to be outside even with layers... and my idea of a perfect winter isn't to be so layered up that i can barely move my legs and have to waddle around everywhere...

It would definately not be the best but would not be hideous either (I just returned from a ski trip in colorado with temps in the 60s and the snow was fine ) as well as the fact that the temperature at exactly ground level would be much lower in Snowy Spring due to the incredibly deep snow cover that it would be at 20ft elevation over a cleared area(where the temperature observations are made). I would guess that if you took readings a few inches from the snow pack tenps would not climb above the 50sF
