What is the difference between climate and weather? What are the major climate regions of the US?

Climate: Humid Subtropical Most of the Eastern United States is humid subtropical. A mild winter and hot humid summers orange

Climate: Humid Subtropical Other places in the world.

Climate: Humid Continental The Northern states are humid continental. They have much colder winters but the summers can be hot and uncomfortable.

Climate: Humid Continental

Climate: Semiarid Steppe Semiarid Steepe Climate = Great Plains into the Southwest doesn’t include Rocky Mountains “characterized by little yearly rainfall and by the growth of short grasses and shrubs” - Dictionary.com

Climate: Semiarid

Climate: Semiarid Other places in the World

Climate: Arid Arid Climate= Southwest & Desert

Climate: Arid Other places in the World

Climate: Mediterranean Mediterranean = Coast of Southern California Warm to hot, dry summers and mild to cool wet winters

Mediterranean: Other places in the World

Climate: Highlands (Alpine) Climate over Rocky and Sierra Nevada. Higher elevation with colder temperature

Highland (Alpine): Other places in the World

Climate: Marine West Coast (Oceanic) Marine West Coast = Coast of Oregon and Washington Climates with few extremes of temperature and lots of participations

Marine West Coast (Oceanic): Other places in the World

Climate: Tropical Wet Tropical Wet = Hawaii & Tip of Florida Found close to the equator (usually with 25%) One season with temperatures above 80 degrees; hot and humid Typically rains every day

Climate: Tropical Wet (around the world)

Subartic

Climate: Tundra Tundra = Northern Canada and Alaska flat treeless plain with lichens, shrubs,and some flowers.
