A, nice warm temperatures, but not too hot and I like the frequent showers/thunderstorms as well. The other two are far too cool to meet my preferences for early autumn/spring weather.

I like C for winter temperatures, preferably it would have a few more precipitation days.

They're all pretty decent. I didn't calculate the averages, but A doesn't look drastically different from an average September here.

I'll go with B. C is nice, but B has more rain and still offers a decent amount of cool weather.

B and C are way too cold for September. A looks similar to what I'm used to but A doesn't have days with heavy rain.

A is nice though

Are any of these real?

A is laughably too hot for what I'd like in September and B is still too warm but still half-decent. I would gladly go with the good weather of option C. Given my love of cold winters, mild summers, and snow, it's not surprising I picked the coolest one of the bunch.

I'd go for "A"... I like the fact that windchill is N/A and there is no high lower than 60F

No. Otherwise I would have given a source.

"A" is based on what I would think an ideal warmer month of weather would be like.

"B" is based on run-of-the-mill September in my hometown of Duluth.

"C" is based on a rather harsh (as in colder-than-normal) September up in the swamps of the far northern Minnesotan outback. Temperatures up there tend to get really cold even at night.
