The Climate
[Ph. Desjobert]
Summers Full of Sunshine
Warm and dry summers, full of sunshine, mild winters, the corsican climate is
a mediterranean one. The average temperature which is over 12 degrees, increases
from South to North. The minimals' average rarely goes under zero during winter,
whereas the maximal average temperature can reach 18° on the coast. In the height
of summer, the coast knows extremes going from 23 to 36°, whereas at about an
altitude of 1000 metres that varies from 8 to 26°.
The winds which come from the four cardinal points and which wear names of
dreams of the Orient - Libecciu, Mistral, Tramontane, Levante, Sirocco, Greccale
. They slide their puffs which are usually peaceful on the isle, but also can,
sometimes, sting it with their gusts...
