mean monthly temperature

The mean monthly temperature varies throughout the region.

It is tropical because the mean monthly temperature of the "coldest" month is equal to or greater than 18 C.

The changes in the river hydrology have altered the local heat budget which has caused microclimatic changes such as decreasing rain and higher mean monthly temperatures.

Pitcairn's climate is mild and equable, with mean monthly temperatures varying from 19 C in August to 24 C in February.

Annual rainfall in their range is less than 140 mm while mean monthly temperatures range between 16 C in January-February and 24 C in August-September.

Farther south along the west coast and the northeast coast of the peninsula, mean monthly temperatures exceeding 0 C for only 1-2 months of summer and average around -15 C in winter.

In an environment of heavy snowfall, where mean monthly temperatures are above freezing point in summer but down to -15 C in winter, the lakes are frozen over with 1-2 m of snow covered ice for 8-11 months each year.

Mean monthly temperatures are below freezing from October through April and exceed +10 C (50 F) from June through August, with the intervening months of May and September constituting very short transitional seasons.

Anguilla (pronounced An-Gwil-a) is just an hour's flight from Antigua and with a mean monthly temperature of 80 degrees fahrenheit it is not surprising that this British Crown Colony is fast becoming the 'in' place for holidaymakers.

However, winters here are noticeably warmer than in cities such as Almaty and Astana, with the mean monthly temperature during the city's coldest month (January) averaging around -1 C. Shymkent averages just under 600 mm of precipitation annually.

The summer months of May and June are very hot with mean monthly temperatures in the region of 35 C and highs which can sometimes reach 50 C. During winters the temperatures can drop below freezing in some areas due to cold wave.

The Kalaharian climate is subtropical (average annual temperature greater than or equal to 18 C, with mean monthly temperature of the coldest month strictly below 18 C), and is semi-arid with the dry season during the "cold" season, the coldest six months of the year.

The coldest month is December but even in this month the temperature remains between 20 C and 24 C. The months of March to May are hot and dry with mean monthly temperatures of around 32 C. The vegetation mostly comprises grasses with a few scattered trees due to the rainfall.
