Spring is practically non existent and summer is a teaser but autumn can be pretty nice. And for a prairie city winter is almost a non factor. Warm (relatively speaking) temperatures for the most part and periodic chinooks to boost them even more. Moving here from central Alberta winter was the one thing that really stood out in Calgary to me in a positive way.

But generally speaking, yeah the weather is less than what I would consider ideal if you like summer.
