[mellanmjolk]

a good example of a far inland, high altitude climate. the jun-aug record lows are very extreme.

I'll be nice and give it an F. The winters are too dry and the summers aren't really summers by my definition (~3 months of 20C mean temps or higher). It's just too cold and depressing.

I have usually kept F for Vostok or other climates like that but nothing doing this is in fact F, too. Where is it, in Kyrgyztan? I´d choose then rather Bishkek what will probably record it´s first 20c of this year on next Thurdsay.

F. Unlivable.

[Steelernation71]

F+. At least it's dry and probably relatively sunny.

[gordo]

F. Nothing less.

[Rozenn]

F. Beautiful area, sad climate. I'd rather live in Arica.

And they say only warm, subtropical climates are boring.

This is the most dullest climate in the world after Glasgow. Even Singapore is more interesting. Lol.

F+ for at least being sunny and dry.

F: All seasons are too cool and the precipitation pattern is terrible.

[wawa1992]

F for Freaking cold.
