उत्तर
It is known for its summer drought and winter rain. On account of being located in the zone of Westerlies, the rainfall decreases from coastal parts towards the interior parts. This region is also affected by cold polar winds known as ‘Mistral’ in the Rhone valley of France and ‘Bora’ in Greece. Some hot and dry winds also affect North Africa, called ‘Sirocco’ and ‘Khamsin’ in Egypt. These winds increase the temperature and cause damage to crops.
