El Desierto de La geography section (very WIP)
Based on: Iqaluit (body text and Weather box "shell"), warmest and driest monthly figures in Nunavut (Weather box data).

El Desierto de La is located in the Everett Mountains rising from Koojesse (Kuujussi) Inlet, an inlet of Frobisher Bay, on the southeast part of Baffin Island. It is well to the east of Nunavut's mainland, and northeast of Hudson Bay.
Climate

El Desierto de La has a cold semi-arid climate (Köppen: BSk) that is thermally subarctic typical of the Arctic region, although it is well outside the Arctic Circle. The city features very long, cold winters and brief summers that are too cool to permit the growth of trees. Although it is north of the tree line, there are still shrubs, which are woody plants. These include the Arctic willow (Salix arctica) which is hard to recognize as a tree because of its low height. The permafrost does not allow the taproot to get deeper than 150 mm (6 in) so this does not allow vertical growth. The Arctic willow may be up to around 7.6 m (25 ft) horizontally, but only 150 mm (6 in) tall. Average monthly temperatures are below freezing for eight months of the year.[2] Iqaluit averages just over 400 mm (16 in) of precipitation annually, much wetter than many other localities in the Canadian Arctic Archipelago, with the summer being the wettest season. Temperatures of the winter months are comparable to other northern communities further west on the continent such as Yellowknife and to some extent even Fairbanks, even though El Desierto de La is a few degrees colder than the latter. Summer temperatures are, however, much colder due to its easterly maritime position affected by the waters of the cold Baffin Island Current. This means that the tree line is much further south in the eastern part of Canada, being as southbound, in spite of low elevation, as northern Labrador.[5]
In comparison, the climate of El Desierto de La is severely cold compared to Gulf Stream locations on the same latitude. For example, the Norwegian city of Trondheim has an annual mean temperature 16 °C (29 °F) milder.
The highest temperature ever recorded in El Desierto de La was 34.9 °C (95 °F) on 21 July 2208.[6] The lowest temperature ever recorded was −40.7 °C (−41 °F) on 7 March 2167.[7]

It's a Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow Bakersfield Climate section and weatherbox
Based on: Bakerfield, California (base), list of Arizona hurricanes and list of California hurricanes (tropical/Cahuilla-induced moisture effects).

Although the region hosts abundant vegetation due to the hydrology of the Tulare Basin, Bakersfield has a hot semi-arid climate (Köppen BSh) falling just outside a hot desert climate (Köppen BWh),[16] with long, hot, dry summers, and brief, cool, slightly moist winters. Bakersfield enjoys more clear days than the majority of the U.S. (averaging 191 days a year).[17] Bakersfield's long summers give the region a climate suitable for growing a variety of crops (ranging from carrots to citrus, almonds, and pistachios). Rainfall is low in the city, however, averaging only 7.43 in or 189 mm annually, mostly falling during winter and spring, with, since 1959, a secondary peak in late summer due to moisture from distant Lake Cahuilla coming from the southeast. On rare occasions, the remnants of Gulf of California-crossing Pacific hurricanes intensified by the lake deposit light to moderate rainfall on the city, with 1.0 inch (25.4 mm) recorded during Hurricane Kathleen in 1976 and 0.76 inches (19.3 mm) during Hurricane Nora in 1997.
Summers are very hot with extended stretches of hot weather and 108 days per year above 90 °F or 32.2 °C (on average between April 19 and October 12);[18] in addition, 33 days are above 100 °F or 37.8 °C from May to September, and a handful of days each summer can be expected to top 110 °F or 43.3 °C.[18] Winters feature mild daytime temperatures, although frost can occasionally occur, often coming with dense tule fog and low visibility, causing many schools to have fog delays as long as 3 hours. The official time frame for tule fog to form is from November 1 to March 31.[19] On average, 12 mornings have freezing lows (on average between December 13 and January 26) annually,[18] and the coldest night of the year typically bottoms out below 30 °F or −1.1 °C.[20]
Snow is rare on the valley floor.[21] The last time it snowed was on January 25, 1999, when the city received 6 inches or 0.15 metres.[22] The record maximum temperature was 118 °F (47.8 °C) on July 28, 1908, and the record minimum temperature was 11 °F (−11.7 °C) on January 3, 1908.[23] The most rainfall in one month was 5.82 inches (147.8 mm) in December 2010,[24] and the maximum 24-hour rainfall was 2.29 inches (58.2 mm) on February 9, 1978.[25] The wettest “rain year” has been from July 1997 to June 1998 with 16.97 inches (431.0 mm) and the driest from July 1933 to June 1934 with 2.26 inches (57.4 mm).[18]

Peacekeeper Valley Climate section and weatherbox
Based on: Dallol, Ethiopia, In Salah (sunshine data)

Peacekeeper Valley features an extreme version of a hot desert climate (Köppen climate classification BWh) typical of the subtropical Whitewastes of Yān, only escaping a broad hyperthermal desert climate (Extended Köppen climate classification HdBWh) due to extremely low humidity. Despite temperatures that would be considered exceptional on other habitable planets such as Earth or Celicia, it is relatively mild for Yān, with a year-round average temperature near to that of the global average, the station recording 44 °C (111.2 °F) between the Earth tropical years 2160 and 2166. The annual average high temperature is 50.5 °C (122.9 °F) and the hottest pseudo-month has an average high of 56 °C (132.8 °F). The hottest temperature recorded at the station was 65.1 °C (149.2 °F) on pseudo-June 52, 2161.
In addition to being staggeringly hot year-round, the climate of the lowlands of the valley is also extremely dry and hyper-arid; less than a dozen Yānian haí'ian days record measurable precipitation per year. In contrast, although similarly torrid, windward slopes on the other (eastern) side of the valley receive massive amounts of precipitation exceeding 550 inches (13,970 mm) per Earth year in some areas, nourishing local stormwoods.
The constant extreme heat of Peacekeeper Valley is particularly due to the proximity with the even more extreme tropics and the Great Dividing Sea, the very low seasonality impact, and the lack of efficient nighttime cooling, amplified by the roughly 10 hour rotation period of Yān.

Merced Climate to be edited
Merced has a humid subtropical climate.[38] Average January temperatures are a maximum of 54.9 °F (12.7 °C) and a minimum of 36.0 °F (2.2 °C). Average July temperatures are a maximum of 88.5 °F (31.4 °C) and a minimum of 69.6 °F (20.9 °C). There are an average of 98.7 days with highs of 80 °F (27 °C) or higher and an average of 33.6 days with lows of 32 °F (0 °C) or lower. The record highest temperature of 114 °F (46 °C) was recorded on July 24, 1902, and August 8, 1905. The record lowest temperature of 13 °F (−11 °C) was recorded on January 13, 2007.
Most of the rainfall occurs during the winter and averages 24.42 inches (620 mm) annually. There are an average of 96 days annually with measurable precipitation. The wettest year was 1998 with 43.32 inches (1,100 mm) and the driest year was 1947 with 11.0 inches (280 mm). The most rainfall in one month was 8.03 inches (204 mm) in January 1909. The most rainfall in 24 hours was 2.21 inches (56 mm), which occurred on January 30, 1911, and March 9, 1911. Although snow is relatively rare in Merced, averaging only 0.6-inch (15 mm) annually, the city's proximity to the Sierra Nevada has resulted in some instances of remarkably heavy snowfall. The record 24-hour snowfall was 14.0 inches (36 cm) on February 16, 1946. The most snowfall in one month was 41.1 inches (104 cm) in December 1906.[30]

A hypothetical Northwestern US "low desert" Geography and climate
Based on: Fields, Oregon
Located deep in the Alvord Rift Valley near sea level and averaging around 4 inches (100 mm) of precipitation per year, Flats is the hottest, driest place in Oregon.[39][40] It experienced the record highest temperature for the state of Oregon, reaching 119 °F (48.3 °C) several times since records began.[41] Fields is in the transition zone between a continental or "cold" desert climate (Köppen climate classification BWk) and a subtropical hot desert climate (Köppen BWh), though it bears more characteristics of the latter. The heat and dryness of the Alvord compared to other Oregon deserts leads to a unique flora growing in the region akin to the Mohave Desert further south, with many endemic species due to its isolation.

Sunbird's Cove Climate section and weatherbox (WIP)
Based on: Eureka, Nunavut
Sunbird's Cove experiences a bizarre variant of humid continental hot-summer climate (Dfa). The settlement sees the midnight sun between pseudo-April 17 and pseudo-August 50, with no haílight at all between mid-October and late February.
Winters are long and cold, though moderate and relatively predictable due to the long polar twilight. Extreme warm spells—frequently in conjunction with tropical hypercanes and Density Anomaly Events—can send winter temperatures soaring above 20 °C (68 °F) on occasion. Spring and autumn are extremely rapid, changeable seasons with greater diurnal and day-to-day temperature variations than other times of the year. During summer, the intense Yānian haílight beats down on this somewhat arid, mostly cloud-free location all through the polar day, resulting in mean temperatures even higher than Terran cities like Las Vegas or Baghdad, although average highs are much less extreme. The low diurnal temperature variation in this season results in exceptionally high minimums—pseudo-July has never reported a temperature lower than 26.7 °C (80.1 °F), higher than any Terran location other than the Dead Sea. The highest temperature ever recorded was 49.8 °C (121.6 °F), first reached on pseudo-July 24, 2209.[45] Late summer hosts a moderate wet season, during which most precipitation falls in sporadic thunderstorms.
Sunbird's Cove is known for its warm summers in comparison to other places in the Northern Ocean Archipelago, which occur because it is somewhat landlocked, being in a namesake cove near the center of the Powers Peninsula, though its winters are also generally colder for the same reason. Sunbird's Cove has a mean temperature of 10.2 °C (50.4 °F), and contains patches of the Yānian circumpolar temperate deciduous forest. Foliage from the more temperate areas of Earth and Celicia is often imported into the area, though they tend to be confused by the short growing seasons and high summer temperatures.[citation needed]

Blue Cataract Eye Crater Rim Climate section and weatherbox
Based on: Mullingar
Blue Cataract Eye Crater Rim has a climate typical of the subtropical mid-latitudes of Merém. Although the mean temperatures and precipitation pattern (or the lack of one) resemble a borderline temperate oceanic climate (Köppen climate classification Cfb) or a warm-summer humid continental climate (Köppen Dfb), the diurnal temperature variation is extreme, averaging 27.6 °C (49.6 °F) throughout the year. This is greater than experienced anywhere on Earth other than Pinnacles National Park, California during July and August, yet Blue Cataract Eye Crater Rim experiences diurnal temperature variation higher than the maximum in Pinnacles on 7 pseudo-months of the year (January, March, April, May, June, November, and December). While frost is relatively rare in July and August (partially due to moderation from the high specific heat capacity of the Crater's Lagoon, though its higher elevation distances it from this effect), it has occurred in every month, and in the extreme case of pseudo-July 7, 2200, temperatures rose from −0.6 °C (30.9 °F) to 39.8 °C (103.6 °F) over the course of one Merémmian haí'ian day. This trait—typical across most areas of Merém—is due largely to its thin atmosphere and long rotation period of 40 hours, 33 minutes, and 36 seconds.
Heavy snowfall can be expected in the winter, though the snowpack tends to be shallow and hard due to frequent freeze-thaw cycles. Summer precipitation typically falls in evening showers or thunderstorms with frequent lightning and hail. Snow can fall even in midsummer, though it usually melts almost immediately in the morning.[48]

Rádrrã'lod Climate section and weatherbox
Based on: Truro
The area of Rádrrã'lod has a solid temperate oceanic climate (Köppen climate classification Cfb), with a slight summer dry season. Due largely to its lower latitude, temperatures (especially during the nighttime) are considerably milder than those of other locations on Serenityland, with frost having never been observed in the pseudo-months (or "duodecims") of July and August during the period of record, and the average growing season is 74 Merémmian haí'ian days (125 Earth solar days) long. Still, diurnal temperature variation is very high, averaging 22 °C (39.6 °F) annually.

The Great Rainmaker summit Climate
Based on: Reggane
The Great Rainmaker's summit has an alpine tundra climate (Köppen climate classification ETH) with long, very cold winters and short, cool summers. There is a possibility of frost at any time of the year, even in midsummer. This is in sharp contrast to the plain below, where daytime temperatures are known to consistently approach 50 °C (122 °F) and nighttime temperatures routinely remain above 30 °C (86 °F) in summer, making it among the hottest places in the entirety of Celicia[54]. Due to the extreme heat, dryness, and intense haílight of the lowlands, The Great Rainmaker's summit is still unglaciated and supports vegetation despite being located 7,000 meters (23,000 ft) [5,964 meters (19,567 ft) Earth geopotential height] above sea level. Precipitation is very low and erratic (although not nearly as low as the plain's 10 millimetres (0.39 in) per Celician tropical year, due to orographic lift) and mainly falls in the winter as light, fluffy snow. Snow typically accumulates starting in pseudo-October and builds up to its maximum depth in late pseudo-April before melting away completely in late pseudo-June. Unlike the plain below, where the sky is almost always clear throughout the year, The Great Rainmaker often experiences cap clouds that drive its relative wetness, leading to its name.

Reggane Heights Climate
Based on: Reggane
Reggane Heights has a climate bordering between alpine tundra (Köppen climate classification ETH), mediterranean subalpine (Köppen Dsc), and cold semi-arid (Köppen BSk), with long, very cold winters and short, mild summers. There is a possibility of frost at any time of the year, though it is rare in midsummer. This is in sharp contrast to the plain below, where daytime temperatures are known to consistently approach 50 °C (122 °F) and nighttime temperatures routinely remain above 30 °C (86 °F) in summer, making it among the hottest places in the entirety of Celicia[56]. Due to the extreme heat, dryness, and intense haílight of the lowlands, Reggane Heights is at the treeline—though closed-canopy forest is only found within gullies—despite being located 6,359 meters (20,863 ft) [5,418 meters (17,776 ft) Earth geopotential height] above sea level, making it the highest forested area in all of Celicia. Precipitation is very low and erratic (although not nearly as low as the plain's 10 millimetres (0.39 in) per Celician tropical year, due to orographic lift) and mainly falls in the winter as light, fluffy snow. Snow typically accumulates starting in pseudo-October and builds up to its maximum depth in early pseudo-April before melting away completely in early pseudo-June. Unlike the plain below, where the sky is almost always clear throughout the year, Reggane Heights often experiences cap clouds that drive its relative wetness, leading to its parent mountain's name as "The Great Rainmaker" by the people below.

Warble Climate section and weatherbox
Based on: Lovell, Wyoming
Warble experiences a continental or cold desert climate (Köppen BWk) with (counting daily mean temperatures) very cold, dry winters and warm, slightly wetter summers. Diurnal temperature variation is incredible throughout the year (though lower in summer due to higher humidity), extremely high even for Merémmian standards and akin to some locations on Mars, with the average exceeding the Terran world record of 103 °F (57.2 °C) set in Loma, Montana on January 15, 1972 in the pseudo-months of February and December. Thus, Warble's winter nights are extremely cold while days are mild, and summer nights are chilly while days are extremely hot. Warble is only a few kilometers away from Dry Hole, which recorded the highest radiational diurnal temperature change ever on Merém at 138 °F (76.7 °C) from −19 °F (−28.3 °C) to 119 °F (48.3 °C) on pseudo-April 9, 1936.
The growing season is very short, though longer than a handful of non-arctic or alpine Terran locations like Bodie, California due to the relative consistency of summer nighttime temperatures, typically lasting around 16 Merémmian haí'ian days (28 Earth solar days) from early pseudo-July to early pseudo-August. However, there have been years with zero-day growing seasons, and even one (2179) where every day had an above-freezing high and below-freezing low. Unusually, the length of the growing season actually increases with elevation in the area due to lower exposure to temperature inversions, the diurnal temperature variation decreasing by up to 18 °F (10 °C) in stations in the mountains, which combines with the greater moisture from orographic precipitation to allow for a greater diversity of species.
Extreme temperatures have ranged from −83.8 °F (−64.3 °C) to 127.3 °F (52.9 °C) for a range of 210.1 °F (116.7 °C), higher than any location on Earth or any other habitable planet in the Haí system, and almost supreme among Merémmian locations.

Okhotsk wetter, warmer climate
Okhotsk has a subarctic climate (Köppen climate classification Dfc) bordering extremely closely on a warm-summer humid continental climate (Köppen climate classification Dfb), with cold winters and mild summers. While the climate is influenced by the ocean, resulting in warmer winters (and cooler summers) than found farther inland, it is to nowhere near the same extent as other locations at similar latitudes like Scandinavia or even Magadan located 420 kilometers (260 mi) away on the same Okhotsk Coast.

Terney wetter, warmer climate
Terney either has a temperate oceanic climate (Köppen climate classification Cfb) using the −3 °C (26.6 °F) isotherm, or a warm-summer humid continental climate (Köppen climate classification Dfb) using the 0 °C (32 °F) isotherm. The oceanic nature of the climate is due to the influence of the Oyashio Current which not only makes summers up to 6 °C (11 °F) cooler than in Harbin but also causes a marked seasonal lag, so the September is on average warmer than June. Despite the heavy rainfall due to orographic influences from mountains near the Pacific, Terney is much sunnier than nearby localities on the Sakhalin Island.

Turpan wetter, warmer climate

Turpan is located about 150 km (93 mi) southeast of Ürümqi, Xinjiang's capital, in a mountain basin, on the northern side of the Turpan Depression, at an elevation of 30 m (98 ft) above sea level. Outside of Turpan is a small volcanic cone, the Turfan volcano, that is said to have erupted in 1120 as described in the Song Dynasty.[64]
Turpan has a "hot" desert climate (Köppen BWh), unlike most other desert locations in China, which have a continental or "cold" desert climate (Köppen BWk). It experiences very hot and long summers, brief, cool winters (cooler than experienced in many hot deserts), and a brief spring and autumn in between. Annual precipitation is very low, amounting to only 31.4 millimetres (1.24 in). The monthly 24-hour average temperature ranges from 2.8 °C (37.0 °F) in January to 32.3 °C (90.1 °F) in July, or a large seasonal variation of 29.5 °C (53.1 °F); the annual mean is 19.3 °C (66.7 °F).[65] With monthly percent possible sunshine ranging from 48% in December to 75% in September, sunshine is abundant and the city receives 2,912 hours of bright sunshine annually.
Extremes have ranged from −18.9 °C (−2 °F) to 50.7 °C (123 °F), although a reading of 52.2 °C (126 °F) in July 1975 is regarded as dubious.[66] However, the high heat and dryness of the summer, when combined with the area's ancient system of irrigation, allows the countryside around Turpan to produce great quantities of high-quality fruit.

Flaming Mountains wetter, warmer climate

The Flaming Mountains are located about 40 km (25 mi) east-southeast of Turpan in a mountain basin, on the northern side of the Turpan Depression, with a maximum elevation of 806 m (2,644 ft) above sea level.
Unlike the Turpan Depression, which has a "hot" desert climate (Köppen BWh) due to its low elevation, the Flaming Mountains have a continental or "cold" desert climate (Köppen BWk). They experience long, hot summers (cooler than those experienced in the Depression, however), cold but brief winters, and a defined spring and autumn in between. Although orographic effects increase it somewhat relative to Turpan, annual precipitation is still very low, amounting to only 40.3 millimetres (1.59 in) in the main weather station but possibly up to 80 millimetres (3.15 in) in some regions. The monthly 24-hour average temperature ranges from −0.5 °C (31.1 °F) in January to 28.2 °C (82.8 °F) in July, for a large seasonal variation of 28.7 °C (51.7 °F); the annual mean is 15.3 °C (59.5 °F).[65] With monthly percent possible sunshine ranging from 48% in December to 75% in September, sunshine is abundant and the range receives about 2,912 hours of bright sunshine annually.
Extremes have ranged from −22.2 °C (−8 °F) to 46.6 °C (116 °F).[68] Due to their crisp winters, the Flaming Mountains receive a dusting or two of snow in an average year, creating a white cover in the morning that contrasts with the lowlands below and adds to the scenic beauty of the region. A persistent snowpack is vanishingly rare, though, and the thin cover almost always melts by mid-day except in sheltered valleys.

Ala Daiposan wetter, warmer climate
Ala Daiposan is located high on the south slopes of the Bogda Shan mountain range about 61 km (38 mi) north of Turpan and 125 km (78 mi) east by south of Ürümqi, Xinjiang's capital, on the northern side of the Turpan Depression, at an elevation of 2,980 m (9,777 ft) above sea level.
Ala Daiposan has a continental or cold desert climate (Köppen BWk) with temperatures in the hemiboreal range, slightly cooler than low-lying Irkutsk 1,000 km (621 mi) further north. It experiences short, mild summers, moderately long, cold winters, and a brief, frosty spring and autumn in between. Although orographic effects increases it greatly relative to Turpan, annual precipitation is still very low, amounting to 86.6 millimetres (3.41 in), though in nearby some microclimates it may be up to 170 millimetres (6.69 in), putting them within the continental semi-arid (BSk) category with subalpine (Dfc) areas further up. The monthly 24-hour average temperature ranges from −9.7 °C (14.5 °F) in January to 17.4 °C (63.3 °F) in August for a large seasonal variation of 27.1 °C (48.8 °F); the annual mean is 4.0 °C (39.2 °F).[65] With monthly percent possible sunshine ranging from 48% in December to 75% in September, sunshine is abundant and the hamlet receives 2,912 hours of bright sunshine annually.
Extremes have ranged from −31.4 °C (−25 °F) to 35.2 °C (95 °F), although a reading of 52.2 °C (126 °F) in July 1975 is regarded as dubious.[70] During the winter, consistently low temperatures (often below freezing for weeks at a time) allow the accumulation of snow, though it seldom exceeds 15 centimetres (5.9 in) and is often patchy. The first snowfall is typically in November and snow cover usually melts completely in mid-April. In microclimates and areas where it accumulates more readily, snow cover is typically continuous in midwinter and it only fully melts away in early-to-mid-May.

Tulihe wetter, warmer climate
Tulihe has a subarctic climate (Köppen Dfc) extremely closely bordering a warm-summer humid continental climate (Köppen Dfb), perhaps the southernmost non-highland instance of this climate in Eurasia. With an average annual temperature of 0.9 °C (33.6 °F), it is colder than even Mohe County in Heilongjiang about 284 km (176 mi) to the north-northeast. Lows average below freezing for seven calendar months and the 24-hour average temperature is below freezing for five calendar months. Its location in a valley of the Greater Khingan Range at an elevation of 734 metres (2,408 ft), promoting temperature inversions, helps the temperature plummet at night, with an average diurnal temperature variation in excess of 15 °C (27 °F) in every month except July and August. Winters are long and very cold, while summers are relatively short and warm. Compared to other seasons, spring and late autumn are relatively dry, though the former is balanced out by snowmelt and the latter dry period is after the end of the short growing season. The monthly 24-hour average temperature ranges from −17.7 °C (0.1 °F) in January to 16.8 °C (62.2 °F) in July. A majority of the annual precipitation occurs in the winter months of January and February and the summer months of July and August alone. With monthly percent possible sunshine ranging from 45% in July to 71% in February and March, the town receives 2,497 hours of bright sunshine annually.

Puno more continental climate
Puno features a subtropical highland climate (Cwc).
As Puno is located at such a high elevation, it experiences more extreme weather conditions than would be expected for its tropical latitude. The average annual temperature is about 8.4 °C,[73] and the weather never gets overly warm. During the winter months from June to August, night-time temperatures usually drop well below 0 °C. At this high altitude, the rays of the sun are very strong. Most of the annual precipitation falls during the southern hemisphere summer, with the winter months being very dry.

Copacabana more continental climate
Copacabana has a dry-winter subpolar oceanic climate (Cwc), a rare variant of this type of climate, but commonplace near most of Lake Titicaca. Similar to many areas with this climate, Copacabana features a markedly drier “low-sun” season. Because of the high altitude of Copacabana, the town is chilly throughout the course of the year. However, due to the fact that Copacabana is located in the tropics, there are only mild variations in temperatures. Daytime temperatures vary from around 17 °C (63 °F) during the "high-sun" season to 13 °C (55 °F) during the "low-sun" season, with nighttime temperatures during the ”low-sun” season being likewise somewhat cooler than in the "high-sun" season. It is not uncommon for temperatures to drop below freezing during the “low-sun” season.

Under the Köppen climate classification, Toluca features a subtropical highland climate (Cwb), with relatively cool, dry winters, and mild, wet, humid summers.[75] Toluca's climate is the coolest of any large Mexican city due to its altitude (2,680 metres (8,793 ft) above sea level).[citation needed] Winter nights are cold and the temperature commonly drop below 0 °C (32 °F). Throughout the year, the temperature is rarely below −4 °C (25 °F) or above 26 °C (79 °F).[76]
The climate is prone to extended dry periods particularly in the winter. The rainy season extends from June to October. Just outside the heavily industrialized city, the municipality has forests with oak, pine, fir, cedar, cypress and other flora, characteristic of the temperate zone of central Mexico.

Port-aux-Français more continental climate (WIP)
Based on: Kerguelen Islands

Kerguelen's climate is oceanic, cool, and very windswept. Under the Köppen climate classification, Kerguelen's climate is considered to be an ET or tundra climate, which is technically a form of polar climate, as the average temperature in the warmest month is below 10 °C (50 °F).[79] Comparable climates include the Aleutian Islands, Campbell Island (New Zealand), the Crozet Islands, Iceland, northern Kamchatka Peninsula, Labrador and Tierra del Fuego.
All climate readings come from the Port-aux-Français base, which has one of the more favourable climates in Kerguelen due to its proximity to the coast and its location in a gulf sheltered from the wind.
The average annual temperature is 4.9 °C (40.8 °F) with an annual range of around 6 °C (11 °F). The warmest months of the year include January and February, with average temperatures between 7.8 and 8.2 °C (46.0 and 46.8 °F).The coldest month of the year is August with an average temperature of 2.1 °C (35.8 °F). Annual high temperatures rarely surpass 20 °C (68 °F), while temperatures in winter have never been recorded below −10 °C (14 °F) at sea level.
Kerguelen receives frequent precipitation, with snow throughout the year as well as rain. Port-aux-Français receives a modest amount of precipitation (708 mm (27.9 in) per year) compared to the west coast which receives an estimated three times as much precipitation per year.
The mountains are frequently covered in snow but can thaw very quickly in rain. Over the course of several decades, many permanent glaciers have shown signs of retreat, with some smaller ones having disappeared completely.
The west coast receives almost continuous wind at an average speed of 35 km/h (22 mph), due to the islands' location in between the Roaring Forties and the Furious Fifties. Wind speeds of 150 km/h (93 mph) are common and can even reach 200 km/h (120 mph).
Waves up to 12–15 m (39–49 ft) high are common, but there are many sheltered places where ships can dock.
Due to the island's southern latitude, it experiences a couple of weeks from December to early January in which there is no true night, only astronomical twilight, meaning that sun illumination is barely distinguishable at nighttime.

Marion Island more continental climate (WIP)
Based on: Prince Edward Islands
Despite being located inside the south temperate zone at 46 degrees latitude, the islands have a tundra climate. They lie directly in the path of eastward-moving depressions all year round and this gives them an unusually cool and windy climate. Strong regional winds, known as the roaring forties, blow almost every day of the year, and the prevailing wind direction is north-westerly.[84] Annual rainfall averages from 2,400 mm (94.5 in) up to over 3,000 mm (118.1 in) on Mascarin Peak. In spite of its very chilly climate it is located closer to the equator than mild northern hemisphere climates such as Paris and Seattle and only one degree farther south than fellow southern hemisphere climates such as Comodoro Rivadavia in Argentina and Alexandra in New Zealand. Many climates on lower latitudes in the opposite hemisphere have far colder winters than Prince Edward Islands due to their maritime moderation, even though temperatures in summer are way short of normal maritime climates.
It rains on average about 320 days a year (about 28 days a month) and the islands are among the cloudiest places in the world; about 1300 hours a year of sunshine occurs on the sheltered eastern side of Marion Island but only around 800 hours occur away from the coast on the wet western sides of Marion and Prince Edward Islands.
Summer and winter have fairly similar climates with cold winds and threat of snow or frost at any time of the year. However, the mean temperature in February (midsummer) is 7.7 °C (45.9 °F) and in August (midwinter) it is 3.9 °C (39.0 °F).[85][86]

Heligoland warmer climate
Heligoland has a temperate oceanic climate (Köppen climate classification Cfb), bordering on a humid subtropical climate (Köppen Cfa) It is almost free of pollen and thus ideal for people with pollen allergies. Since there is no land mass in the vicinity, temperatures rarely drop below −2 °C (28 °F) even in the winter. At times, winter temperatures can be higher than in Hamburg by up to 10 °C (18 °F) because cold winds from Russia are weakened. While spring tends to be comparatively cool, autumn on Heligoland is often longer and warmer than on the mainland, and statistically, the climate is generally sunnier. The coldest temperature ever recorded on Heligoland was −8.5 °C (17 °F) in February 1956, while the highest was 32.6 °C (91 °F) in July 1994.
Owing to the mild climate, figs have reportedly been grown on the island as early as 1911,[87] and a 2005 article mentioned Japanese bananas, figs, agaves, palm trees and other exotic plants that had been planted on Heligoland and were thriving.[88] There still is an old mulberry tree in the Upper Town.
