Oldtown Mediterranea has a borderline Mediterranean (Csa/Dsa) climate under the Koppen system. Under the Trewartha system, it borders between Dc, Do and Wet Cs. Despite its immensely wet winters and high annual precipitation, no rainforests can grow nearby, especially with the sandy soil.
Harmony Town has a Cfb climate (bordering on Cfa) with sufficient precipitation to qualify as a temperate rainforest. Sitka Spruce and Coast Redwood grow to the east, contrasting the White Oak, River Birch, White Pine and Red Maple west of the town. Due to its mild winters and very warm summers, Needle Palm and Dwarf Palmetto thrive here.
Under the Trewartha system, the climate is a Do/Cf borderline, which corresponds with the ecology of the area.
Gavin Island has a rare mild-summer tropical rainforest climate (Koppen Af). Temperatures and precipitation remain stable and moderate year-round, which makes it one of extremely few climates where both Coconut Palms and Chilean Wine Palms will survive.
Despite its excessively mild climate, Gavin Island has no permanent residents as it is privately owned by a wealthy family from the mainland and used for recreational purposes. They hold public events here three times a year, however.
Merryville has an extreme subpolar climate (Koppen Dfd), closely bordering on warm-summer continental (Koppen Dfb) as the fourth-warmest month has a mean of 49.5 degrees Fahrenheit. This was long known as the coldest non-glaciated climate until the Grey Deep was cut off from the sea and drained.
Native vegetation consists of White Spruce, Dahurian Larch and Silver Birch, while the economy survives exclusively on Christmas tourism.
Grey Deep is a climate of extremes; it has the coldest winters, hottest summers, least precipitation and most sunshine of any place with data available. The extreme winters are due to temperature inversions happening after frigid winter air moves in from the northwest, while hot, dry summer air from the southeast sinks and heats in the other half of the year.
The Koppen classification for this climate is BWk, while the Trewartha classification is BW. Despite having fiercely cold winters, there is no permafrost here due to the equally extreme summers.
Native vegetation is absent apart from some mosses and lichens due to the very extreme seasons and thin, rocky, salty soil. The area also floods over ten meters deep in April and May, but the water evaporates by the end of the summer due to the extreme heat and dryness; a small amount even boils near the shore due to the hot ground, and the entire intermittent lake began boiling for several hours in the record heat of August 4, 1936.
As for me, Oldtown Mediterranea is a D (fail), Harmony Town a C (acceptable), and it should be obvious that for someone like me, Gavin Island would be a solid A+ with Merryville and Grey Deep both solid F-.
Winters too warm and wet, Summers too hot (except at night), wet, and sunny. Too much hot times for me in summer, yucky. I would say it would start getting to 90 F / 32 C at 10 AM and ending little after sunset.
Harmony Town: C+
Winters too warm and sunny, Summers a tad too hot, Too wet in some months.
Gavin Island: D+
Winters way too warm and dry, Too sunny year round
Merryville: C+
You might not see this happen very often, but:
Spoiler
Winters are too cold. =)
Anyway, Summers are ideal but the dryness is not ideal at all!, Too dry year round as i mentioned before, Too sunny year round.
Grey Deep: Z--
F- was WAAAAAAAAAAAAY too high of a grade for this such a crappy hellish climate. So i brought the Z grade into my grading limits.
Winters are dry-ice cold, Summers are searingly lethal, It is way too dry and sunny year round.
Conclusion:
Most of the climates were pretty stupid and crappy, Merryville and Harmony Town were the only okay ones out there. Gosh, I am either melting or turning to a frozen flashrazor 292!
grading all of these insane-leveled climates .

LOL I can't stop laughing now! I'll probably have to myself
OK, let's start. Your climates are too extreme:
Oldtown Mediterranea: F (winters too mild, cloudy and wet, summers too hot, dry and sunny)
Harmony Town: C+ (winters too snowy, summers too warm and sunny)
Gavin Island: C- (too sunny year-round, winters too warm)
Merryville: F (winters too cold, summers too sunny and dry)
Grey Deep: Z (winters too cold, summers too hot, dry and sunny)
