It's like a warmer, wetter and some sort of a Cfa version of London.

I give it a solid C for having comfortable temps at most times. Except, it's way too cloudy for my liking. And summers seem a bit muggy (the nights).

B-, I love the record lows and the average temperatures are very good (altho I'd prefer summer to be a couple degrees warmer). The big problem is the lack of sunshine, it seems like a very gray and drab climate, and the humidity in the summer doesn't seem fun either. Solid climate, but could be better

C: winters are too boring (i.e. too warm) otherwise it's really good!

B-. Not bad at all considering for the latitude and location. Wish Oct~Apr had 30~60 more sunshine hours in each month and yeah August averages are bit too warm to stay comfortable.

I think the lack of sunshine helps with regards to the humidity in summer though, don't you?

It's a pretty bad climate for the most part. The sunshine is just way too low and the humidity is way too high. It's also a bit too oceanic for my taste. I'll give it a C-/D+ because it does have some redeeming factors, like a slightly drier summer. But I can understand why the population has been decreasing since 1849

C- Boring records and seasonal lag but gardening would be fun there.
