Clima en Noruega..MET OFFICE
  • Norway extends for about 1,100 miles between 58
    and 71 N. The northern part of the country
    within the Arctic Circle has continuous daylight
    at midsummer and Arctic twilight all day in
    winter. Much of the interior is high mountain and
    plateau, whilst the largest area of lowland is in
    the south around Oslo, and this is the driest and
    warmest part of the country in summer.
  • The interior highlands have an Arctic type of
    climate in winter with snow, strong winds and
    severe frosts, but during fine summer spells the
    daytime temperatures can rise to the low 30s C
    with long hours of sunshine. By contrast, the
    coastal areas have comparatively mild winter
    conditions under the influence of the Atlantic.
    This prevents the sea from freezing and keeps the
    harbours open.
  • Norway's weather and climate are very much
    influenced by Atlantic weather disturbances,
    resulting in changeable conditions throughout the
    year. Gales, rain and cloud are the dominant
    features of this coast, and the rainfall is
    frequent and heavy (in excess of 200 mm in each
    of the autumn months at Bergen). Rainfall
    decreases towards the north and snow is common at
    sea level in winter.
  • The Spitzbergen archipelago is situated in the
    Arctic Ocean between 77 and 80 N and has a
    severe Arctic climate. Winters are very cold and
    in the short summers, snow scarcely melts at sea
    level. The conditions at this time are very
    severe and also apply to northern and central
    parts of mainland Norway at higher levels.

Eastern Mediterranean Past weather and climate
  • December is the warmest winter month in the
    eastern Mediterranean, although Cairo does have a
    fairly constant temperature throughout the season
    (average daytime maximum temperature 20 C/68
    F). This makes it ideal for sightseeing - not
    too hot ! Southern Israel has temperatures 2 or 3
    degrees higher, whilst the Greek mainland has
    corresponding values of 16 C (61 F). Four to
    five hours of sunshine can be expected at Cairo
    and Corfu, whilst Eilat enjoys about 7 hours on
    average. There are typically 28 dry days each
    month in Egypt, whilst the Greek islands and
    mainland have only 14 to 18.
  • Spring is again a good time for touring the area
    before some parts just get too hot. Cairo has
    average daytime maxima varying from 24 C (75 F)
    in March to a hot 32 C (90 F) in May. In Greece
    and the islands, temperatures reach an average
    maximum of 25 C (78 F) in May, sometimes
    enhanced by the presence of the 'Sirocco', a hot
    wind from Africa. In southern Israel,
    temperatures can reach a very hot 36 C (97 F)
    in May. Up to ten or eleven hours of sunshine can
    be expected, coupled with up to 30 dry days.
  • The summer months can be extremely hot in Egypt
    and Israel, with Cairo having average daily
    maximum temperatures of 35 C (96 F) and Eilat
    having corresponding values of 40 C (104 F). It
    must be remembered that these values are
    averages, and the actual temperatures could be
    well in excess of them. If sailing around the
    Greek islands, watch out for the 'Etesian' winds
    which can persist for days, making the sea
    choppy. This can reach gale force during the day
    before dropping out at night. It does, however,
    have a plus, inasmuch as it makes the heat more
    bearable in those regions. The summer months are
    almost totally dry, and 10 or more hours of
    sunshine are expected on average.
  • The high temperatures continue well into the
    autumn with 33 C (92 F) at Egypt in September
    falling to 26 C (79 F) by November. The
    'Sirocco' again often affects the Greek islands
    at this time of year, holding average maxima at
    about 29 C (85 F), falling to 19 C (66 F) by
    November. Greece and the islands become
    progressively wetter through the season (15 to 17
    days by November). At Eilat, average daily maxima
    are still as high as 28 C (82 F) by the end of
    November, but at least it has started raining!
  • By November, 7-8 hours of sunshine can be
    expected over Egypt and Israel, but only 4-5 over
    Greece and the islands.

Eastern Europe Past weather and climate I
  • Northern and central European Russia is below
    1,000 feet and has rather variable weather
    compared to other parts of the old USSR. This is
    because it is more open to weather influences
    coming from western Europe. The mildest areas are
    along the Baltic coast, but even here the sea can
    freeze in severe winters. Daily average maximum
    temperatures at Moscow range from -9 C in
    January to 23 C in July. July is the wettest
    month on average (88 mm). Winter sunshine is low
    throughout the region, only one hour per day on
    average being received. In summer, however, up to
    ten hours on average are common.
  • Hungary is a totally enclosed country, completely
    cut off from the moderating influence of the
    Atlantic Ocean. There are no great differences in
    weather or climate throughout the country, though
    there is a considerable difference between winter
    and summer, and spells of weather tend to persist
    longer than in more-oceanic climates. Spring and
    summer are the wettest periods, much of the rain
    coming in frequent heavy thundery downpours.
    Summer weather is pleasantly warm or hot, whilst
    the winters are cold with snow and fog. Indeed,
    the Danube is often completely frozen during
    severe spells. Daily average maximum temperatures
    at Budapest vary from vary from 1 C in January
    to 28 C in July. The wettest month on average is
    May (72 mm).

Eastern Europe Past weather and climate II
  • The Czech and Slovak Republics are also enclosed
    countries with a transitional climate between the
    milder, wetter Atlantic European pattern and the
    more extreme Russian weather. There is little
    variability in the weather across the countries,
    and the longest periods of settled weather occur
    during calm cold foggy winter spells. Snow may
    lie for as many as 100 days. Average daily
    maximum temperatures at Prague vary from 10 C in
    January to 33 C in July. On average, the wettest
    month is July (68 mm).
  • Romania has a continental-type climate with cold
    snowy winters and warm summers. Precipitation is
    normally rather low except in the higher parts of
    the Carpathians. Spring and summer are the
    wettest seasons with frequent thunderstorms. The
    change from winter to summer is rather abrupt,
    with spring being a short and changeable season.
    Summers can have up to 10 hours of sunshine a
    day, but only two hours in a typical winter
    period. At Bucharest, average daily maximum
    temperatures vary from 1 C in January to 30 C
    in July and August. June is the wettest month on
    average (121 mm).

Eastern Europe Past weather and climate III
  • Most of Poland has a similar climate and the same
    sequence of weather throughout the year.
    Precipitation is well distributed throughout the
    year, with a summer maximum of rain, often heavy
    and thundery. Much of the winter precipitation is
    snow, which can lie for up to 100 days in the
    Carpathians. In summer, it rarely gets hot, but
    fine spells of sunny weather and occasional
    droughts occur. At Warsaw, daily average maximum
    temperatures vary from 0 C in winter to 24 C in
    summer. The wettest month on average is July (96
    mm).
