3 years ago I agree with you, I have added the following:
To be honest I am not sure about the week info since they do not make much sense to me. Don't week always move around each year? What is a week, sometimes they consider it starting on Sunday or Monday? Why would this info be so relevant, what does it change if the coldest week is the first or second of Feb? How the user will benefit from that. Maybe we can report the coldest month then, or when the 99% and 1% temperatures were recorded.
Coldest Week: x/x to y/y Typical Winter Week: x/x to y/y Hottest Week: x/x to y/y Typical Summer Week: x/x to y/y
Climate.onebuilding.org classifies the seasons like this which is not very intuitive
Some extra summary stats are summarized here:

Hi Federico,
I am trying to put togrther a couple of more coherent thoughts than I have managed so far on the topic.
I believe a climate summary can be helpful and should be entirely contained in he tab with the same name.
It should contain the following:
Köppen–Geiger climate zone: Cfb. Marine west coast, warm summer. Average Yearly Temperature: XX degC (this can be useful to quicly understand how much yearly swing there is -i.e. difference between average and max and min or just get a sense of how "hot" or "cold" or as proxy for ground temperatures)
Coldest Week: x/x to y/y Typical Winter Week: x/x to y/y Coldest Yearly Temperature (01%): YY degC
Hottest Week: x/x to y/y Typical Summer Week: x/x to y/y Hottest Yearly Temperature (99%): YY degC
Yearly Cumulative Global Horizontal Solar Radiation: ZZZZZ Kwh/m2 of which diffuse: AA% (this value can be very different in a place like jerusalem and KL even if both have crazy high numbers of totoal solar radiation)
What do yu think?
Best,
G
