Winters are cloudy and moderately cold. Typical winter season is December 1st to April 30th, with the coldest month typically being March. Christmas is celebrated on St. Patricks Day, as that is often the coldest day of the year
Springs are comfy and mild. They usually last 2 weeks. Sometimes they last 3 weeks
Summers are comfortable and perfect for outdoor temperatures. While they're generally mild, September is prone to blasts of 90F weather
Octobers are nice and beautiful
The sun disappears in November, not appearing until next March or April. Average monthly sunshine in December is around 5 to 6 minutes. The rare sunny days between November and February are treated as national holidays

The description is hilarious and gets an A. The climate is horrendous and gets an F.
It would be a good climate, if a bit cool in summer, but the atrocious seasonal lag gave this climate a penalty. If everything were moved back one month (e.g. May's temps in April, October's in September, etc) this climate would have an 81.4% / B-.

D+/E- depending on the year. Winters are too cold and long lasting, but summer is just about acceptable. It seems like there is plenty of rain all year round.
