| WEATHER |
The climate is moderately continental and comparatively dry, with a short
mild winter and long hot summer. There are more than 290 sunny days in the year.
Since Odessa region is drawn out along the meridian, the climate in the narrow – 30-40
km. – stretch along the coast is practically ideal, with the soft tang of the sea mixing
with the scent of the steppes.
The winter average temperature hovers around freezing. Falling snow and minus 10 Celsius
is a really rare occurrence, which is usually replaced by a thaw.
In summer average temperature is 25 Celsius, though in summer daytime can get up over 35
Celsius.
