Although high summer to mid autumn is relatively dry, springs are characterised by frequent and severe thunderstorms. Sleet and graupel are very common occurrences throughout the year (at times even in early summer) and snow often falls heavily in the winter and spring months. Low, heavy cloud dominates the winter skies. Seasonal range is especially great about the maximum temperatures, from in January to just in July.
