1. Reading a Climate Graph

2. Where is this station/location?
Precipitation
Overall – low amount
Highest – summer
Lowest – winter
Temperature
Maximum: 18°C
Minimum: -17°C
Range: 35°
Growing Season:
5 months

3. Precipitation Overall – low amount of precipitation
Therefore continental air masses. Why?
Continental Air masses are dry
Highest – summer
Convection precipitation occurs more in the summer in urbans areas or places without trees, like lowlands. Why?
Ground heats up near the surface
Lowest – winter
Continental air masses are dry so frontal systems will produce less precipitation.
No convection occuring

4. Temperature Temperature Maximum: 18°C (warm air mass dominates)
Minimum: -17°C (cold air mass dominates)
Range: 35° (indicates that there is not a moderating effect from water)
Growing Season: 5 months
(plants can grow but larger plants will struggle due to lack of moisture)

5. Climate Region?
Overall – low amount of precipitation. Therefore continental air masses.
Highest – summer Convection precipitation occurs more in the summer in urban areas or places without trees.
Lowest – winter-
Continental air masses are dry so frontal systems will produce less precipitation.
