C+
Winters are a bit too warm and wet, and summers are too dry and cold at night. But it has better seasons than most of California.

What is the storm activity like? If it is adequate enough, then I might as well upgrade my rating

Storm activity? In the PNW? Not much, that’s for sure... There’s more thunderstorms east of the Cascades, but Dunsmuir is on the west side of the Cascades.

Funny thing about the summer rain here. Some summers (especially recent ones) are so dry that we can go over a month without a single drop. Summer rain is actually cheered on here, on the rare occasions it does happen.

Well ain't that just lovely...

Still a B–, then.

C- no good for California. Lows too cold year round and too snowy.

C-

Diurnal range is too much. Winters are depressingly wet and snowy. But overall, it's not that bad. Seems comfortable and far superior to the midwest, despite the snow. Summers are nice and crisp.
