How exactly is a 30C+ diurnal range is "boring"? It's like you just rated San Diego or something. Also, 437mm is not really that dry.
Even continental climates don't have such stark temperature differences in a day's span.
Our dirunal range is nothing to write home about (proximity to Atlantic probably), but you have to remember with continental climates there is much more pronounced range between seasons that are the hallmark of continental climates. The diff here between winter and summer is very striking compared to the dirunal ranges in that climate.
Very good for a climate with 35C July and August highs. Those cool summer nights really pull the grades up, because it's a nice and smooth recovery every single night. Adequate winter rainfall as well, combined with good relief from allergies with those winter frosts! Not bad at all. I'd preferred a 30/12 diurnal but aside from that it looks very good for its kind
C. Too warm year round during the day. I dong like the precipitation pattern with rainy winters and bone dry, thunder-less summers, but the amount is good. Loses points for stability and lack of snow as well. Still a comfortable climate with decent seasons and that awesome diurnal range gives it more interest.
There are plenty of places in SW USA with similar diurnal range in winter (and spring)
but not in summer ...lows only in the mid 40s ....that's cool from mid 90s highs.
What kind of climate is this? Day and Night temperature differences? What is strange about this climate is that how day and night temperature difference is this much in winter months even if the perception is high in winter months.
