=== Climate === Palma has a [[semi-arid climate|hot semi-arid climate]] bordering on a [[Mediterranean_climate#Hot-summer_Mediterranean_climate|hot-summer Mediterranean climate]] ([[Köppen climate classification|Köppen]]: ''BSh'' bordering on ''Csa''; [[Trewartha climate classification|Trewartha]]: ''BSal'' bordering on ''Csal'') with an average annual temperature of {{convert|18.5|C|F|0}}. During the coldest month, January, the average high temperature is {{convert|15.7|C|F|0}}, while the average low is {{convert|8.5|C|F|0}}. In the warmest month, August, the average high temperature is {{convert|30.2|C|F|0}}, while the low is {{convert|23.0|C|F|0}}. Autumn is the wettest season, with occasional heavy rainfall and storms. The average sunshine hours are around 2800 per year.<ref name="aemet.es"/> There is a significant maritime influence, so the city has mild winters and hot but not extreme summers. The surrounding continental landmasses can warm up the offshore sea surface temperatures and as a result, the small confines of Mallorca are still able to build up and sustain heat despite being on an island. There is vast [[seasonal lag]], especially in late summer courtesy of the seawater peaking in temperatures long after the summer solstice. Extreme temperatures are rare for the influence of the sea. Freezes are extremely rare, as the port of Mallorca has only registered once a low temperature below freezing ({{convert|-0.1|C|F|0}} in February 2012), as well as Mallorca, has never gone above {{convert|40|C|F|0}} in any summer month since temperature records began in 1978.<ref name="Valores extremos.
