=== Climate === Bordeaux's climate can be classified as [[oceanic climate|oceanic]] ([[Köppen climate classification]] ''Cfb''), bordering on a [[humid subtropical climate]] (''Cfa'').<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.infoclimat.fr/climatologie/normales-records/1981-2010/bordeaux-merignac/valeurs/07510.html |title=Normales et records pour la période 1981–2010 [données officielles] à Bordeaux-Mérignac |access-date=8 November 2021 |publisher=Infoclimat.fr |archive-date=5 November 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211105035127/https://www.infoclimat.fr/climatologie/normales-records/1981-2010/bordeaux-merignac/valeurs/07510.html |url-status=live}}</ref> However, the [[Trewartha climate classification]] system classifies the city as solely humid subtropical, due to a recent rise in temperatures related – to some degree or another – to [[climate change]] and the city's [[urban heat island]]. The city enjoys cool to mild, wet winters, due to its relatively southerly [[latitude]], and the prevalence of mild, westerly winds from the Atlantic. Its summers are warm and somewhat drier, although wet enough to avoid a [[Mediterranean climate|Mediterranean]] classification. Frosts occur annually, but snowfall is quite infrequent, occurring for no more than 3–4 days a year. The [[2003 European heat wave|summer of 2003]] set a record with an average temperature of {{convert|23.3|°C|°F|abbr=on}},<ref>GHCN climate, GISS world climate averages, 1971–2000</ref> while February 1956 was the coldest month on record with an average temperature of −2.00 °C at Bordeaux Mérignac-Airport.<ref>GISS Station Data v4 homogenized Bordeaux Mérignac Airport</ref> {{Weather box |location
