Continental climate; winters are cold and snowy, summers are long and tend to be hot and a bit dry. It's similar to the US Midwest or Great Plains. - Apr 2019
The winters are loooong (6 months)and cold, although embassy houses are well-made and you will be comfortable if you live in one. The other three seasons are kind of smushed into the remaining six months. Spring and summer, though quite short after a long winter, are very pleasant. I keep hearing that it can get quite hot here, but I've actually had the small heater on in my office on and off for both seasons. Not sure yet about fall. One word of caution: bring your Yaktrax 
Weather is fairly similar to that in the northern United States. There are four distinct seasons. Winter can be long and cold, although temperatures do not often drop below zero Fahrenheit. Similarly, although the summers can be hot...it does not often get above 100 (although it can and it does). - May 2010
Similar to Maryland. - Mar 2010
