A humid subtropical climate is a temperate climate type characterized by hot and humid summers, and cool to mild winters.
humid subtropical climate, major climate type of the Köppen classification characterized by relatively high temperatures and evenly distributed precipitation throughout the year. This climate type is found on the eastern sides of the continents between 20° and 35° N and S latitude.
The humid subtropical climate is a subtropical climate type characterized by hot, humid summers and generally mild winters.
The Humid Subtropical Climate is characterized by hot and humid summers, and extremely cold winters. It’s mostly prevalent on the eastern sides of all continents, and at latitudes of 25 and 35 degrees, and located poleward near the tropical climates.
Cwa = Monsoon-influenced humid subtropical climate; coldest month averaging above 0 °C (32 °F) (or −3 °C (26.6 °F)), at least one month's average temperature above 22 °C (71.6 °F), and at least four months averaging above 10 °C (50 °F). At least ten times as much rain in the wettest month of summer as in the driest month of winter.
A humid subtropical climate is a type of climate. It has hot, humid summers and warm, mild or cool winters. In the Köppen climate classification, they are split into Cfa when there is no dry season and Cwa when there are dry winters. Unlike in a tropical climate, snow and frost can occur in a humid subtropical climate.
Subtropical climates are warmer and more humid than temperate ones but cooler and less wet than tropical climates. They have more temperature changes and milder conditions than the cold temperate and constant warmth of tropical climates.
The humid subtropical climate is noted for its warm summer months, and relatively mild winters. Summer temperatures average between 21 o (69.8 o F) to 26 o C (78.8 o F) and no winter month has an average temperature below 0 o C (32 o F). Many days the temperature can hit 32 o C (90 o F) or higher.
It may refer to: Humid continental climate (Köppen Dfa/b), a climatic type typified by four distinct seasons and large seasonal temperature differences. Humid subtropical climate (Köppen Cfa), a zone of climate characterized by hot and humid summers, and cool to mild winters.
Tropical climates are defined by a monthly average temperature of 18 °C (64 °F) or higher in the coolest month, featuring hot temperatures and high humidity all year-round. Annual precipitation is often abundant in tropical climates, and shows a seasonal rhythm but may have seasonal dryness to varying degrees.
