The climate of western Europe

Western Europe's temperate maritime climate zone includes the British Isles, the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, France and other countries and western Central Europe, as well as southern Scandinavia and the coastal areas of the Bay of Biscay in Iberia. The atmospheric pressure here is high in the south and low in the north all the year round, with a westerly wind, which is deeply influenced by the Atlantic air mass. The climate in this area is characterized by warm winter and cool summer, with low temperature, much rain and little sunshine all year round. The average monthly temperature in this area 1 month is above 0℃. Rivers generally don't freeze. There is not much snowfall, generally it doesn't snow in the west, and the snow period in the east rarely lasts more than a week. However, when the Mongolian high pressure is very strong and the eastern polar continental air mass invades, it often leads to disastrous low temperature weather. Generally, the temperature is not high in summer In July, the average temperature in the British Isles was 12- 17℃, while that in Chinese mainland was 15-22℃. The temperature is lower in the north and higher in the south. Western Europe has frequent cyclone activities and more precipitation. The annual precipitation in the western part of the British Isles is above 1000mm, and in the coastal area of western Scotland it can reach above 2000 mm.. Other areas are mostly 600-1000 mm. The seasonal distribution of precipitation is relatively uniform, with more in autumn and winter in the west and more in summer in the east. For example, Dublin accounts for 26% in autumn and winter, and 24% in spring and summer; Cologne accounts for 365,438+0% in summer, 25% in autumn, 23% in winter and 265,438+0% in spring. References:
