===Climate=== {{further|Climate change in Wisconsin}} [[File:Wisconsin Köppen.svg|thumb|Köppen climate types of Wisconsin]] Most of Wisconsin is classified as warm-summer [[humid continental climate]] ([[Köppen climate classification|Köppen]] ''Dfb''), while southern and southwestern portions are classified as hot-summer humid continental climate (Köppen ''Dfa''). The highest temperature ever recorded in the state was in the Wisconsin Dells, on July 13, 1936, where it reached 114 °F (46 °C). The lowest temperature ever recorded in Wisconsin was in the village of [[Couderay]], where it reached −55 °F (−48 °C) on both February 2 and 4, 1996. Wisconsin also receives a large amount of regular snowfall averaging around {{convert|40|in|cm}} in the southern portions with up to {{convert|160|in|cm}} annually in the Lake Superior [[snowbelt]] each year.<ref name="uwexclimate">{{cite web|url=http://www.uwex.edu/sco/stateclimate.html|title=Climate of Wisconsin|access-date=March 16, 2007|last=Benedetti|first=Michael|publisher=The University of Wisconsin–Extension|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130117094615/http://www.uwex.edu/sco/stateclimate.html|archive-date=January 17, 2013}}</ref> {{sort under}} {| class="wikitable sortable sort-under" "text-align:center; font-size:90%;" | |+ '''Monthly normal high and low temperatures for selected Wisconsin cities''' [°F (°C)] |- !
