Two things interesting about it is the fact that it is a Middle Eastern (or southwest Asian) city with a pure continental climate and how it has a pronounced Mediterranean rainfall pattern (for a continental climate - which seems odd):

I don't like continental climates - freezing winters and comparatively hot summers. I give it a D- for at least having good summer sunshine/dryness and being comfortable in June. My dad's ancestors came from there - wonder how they handled it cos I wouldn't.

I rate it a C. Winters are nice but summers are too hot and dry.

I like the summers, but winters are awful.

However, there are mountains nearby, so a skiing fan might rate it an A.

B-. Winters seem great. Cold and snowy. Summers are too hot, but I like that they're relatively dry.

Really interesting climate. If winters were a bit warmer and shorter it'd be near perfect. Not knowing the %humidity per month and winters being too cold force me to give it a C, though.
