Armenia is located in subtropics, however, because of the high-mountainous character the climate there is rather dry continental with hot summers (average temperature +25 Ñ ) and cold winters (average temperature -6C). Maximum amount of precipitations falls out in spring and beginning of summer.
The weather in different areas of Armenia differs significantly, though. In the uplands the climate gets more severe and first turns to moderate-warm , then - moderate, and further transforms into continental (average temperature in January-14C, July +10 Ñ ). Summers and autumns in Armenia are very sunny. In winter there is a lot of snow which in midlands and uplands is up to 30-100 cm and lasts for a long time. The highest mountain tops in Armenia as a rule are covered by snow all year round.
