B looks very close to my climate but with cooler winter max temps, summer is almost identical. Would be an A if it had higher winter max temps, double the rain, and 2500 hours of sun.
D. Temperature wise it look very similar (not exact, but similar) to Seattle, but with less precipitation in during the winter months (and more for the summer months).
Winters should be colder. Summers should be a little warmer and drier.
Only thing that saves it from an F are the dry (compared to what I'm used to!) winters, despite the wetter than I'm used to summers.

We don't get much real winter weather. Just days on end of mizzle. (misty drizzle)
Spring is a very long seasons here and can still be cool and rainy.
Summers, when we get proper summers, are gorgeous here. However sometimes our summers, as last summer did, start late, end early, and don't pack much punch.
Falls can go either way. Sometimes we get excellent falls (happened last year after a dismal summer) and other times we can have very storm ridden falls.
So pretty much if it were a little colder and snowier in the winter, with summers that started earlier and ended a little later than they currently do and were warm and dry without fail, the grade would be higher.
I may have an opportunity for a promotion at work which would involve a relocation to the Wenatchee, Washington area before this year is out. If I get the job I'm taking it and moving for sure! It has a climate much closer to what I am looking for.
The only exception I'll make is Alaska. Would LOVE to live there sometime, even if for nothing more than the experience.
It's certainly not the best, and nobody's been moaning more than me about the lack of sunshine this winter, but it's still warmer/sunnier/drier than where I come from and at least we rarely if ever have to shovel cars out of the snow or deal with severe windchills/heatstroke/hurricanes/killer tornadoes and the like. I give it a C.
B. It's decent. I don't like how warm the winter is, but considering how nice the summers are, I wouldn't have much to complain about.
I agree with everything except for the rating. I gave it a C not a B. This winter is too mild.
