Temperature Extremes andSezonality

Te mech prominent features is the large annual temperatur range. Summers can be intensely hot, often exceeding 30 ° C (86 ° F), while winters plugne well below freezing, sometimes reaching -40 ° C (-40 ° F) or colder. This extreme variation is what difnishes continental climates frem thee more temrenate maritime climates found near coacroiones.

Precipitation Patterns

Annual precipitation in continental climate zone is typically low to moderate, averaging between 30 to 90 centlometers (12 to 35 inches) per year. Most of this precipitation falls during thee summer months, often in the form of convectiva thunderstorms. Winters are generally dry, with snowfall being the primary form of precipitation.
