What's the climate like in Bosnia and Herzegovina in May?

Mediterranean climate, also known as subtropical summer drought climate, is a subtropical and temperate climate type, which is formed by alternating control of westerly belt and subtropical high belt. It is distributed in the Mediterranean coast, the Black Sea coast, California, Perth in southwestern Australia and Adelaide in the south, southwestern South Africa and central Chile. It is named after the most typical Mediterranean coast.

In the Mediterranean region, summer is controlled by the subtropical high, and the water temperature in the Mediterranean is lower than that on land, resulting in high pressure, which increases the influence of the subtropical high. In winter, the water temperature in the Mediterranean Sea is high, forming a low pressure, attracting the west wind, which greatly strengthens the influence of the west wind.

Climatic characteristics

The subtropical Mediterranean climate is characterized by the westerlies in winter, frequent frontal cyclones and mild climate. The temperature in Leng Yue is between 4- 10℃, with abundant precipitation. In summer, controlled by subtropical high, the airflow sinks, the climate is hot and dry with little rain, few clouds and plenty of sunshine. The annual precipitation is 300- 1000 mm, accounting for 60%-70% in winter and only 30%-40% in summer. There is more precipitation in winter than in summer.

If the annual precipitation in the Mediterranean region is made into a histogram, it will be found that it will form a basin arc.

There is a great difference in summer temperature between coastal areas and inland areas. Affected by cold ocean currents, the temperature in coastal areas is low, the hottest month is below 22℃, and the air is humid and foggy, which is called cool summer type. Inland, far from the ocean, the ocean regulation is small, the air is dry and warm, and the hottest month temperature is above 22℃, which is called warm summer type.
