Editing Calabria (section)

===Climate===
Calabria's climate is influenced by the sea and mountains. The [[Mediterranean climate]] is typical of the coastal areas with considerable differences in temperature and rainfall between the seasons, with an average low of {{cvt|8|°C|0}} during the winter months and an average high of {{cvt|30|°C|0}} during the summer months. Mountain areas have a typical mountainous climate with frequent snow during winter. The erratic behavior of the Tyrrhenian Sea can bring heavy rainfall on the western slopes of the region, while hot air from Africa makes the east coast of Calabria dry and warm. The mountains that run along the region also influence the climate and temperature of the region. The east coast is much warmer and has wider temperature ranges than the west coast. The geography of the region causes more rain to fall along the west coast than that of the east coast, which occurs mainly during winter and autumn and less during the summer months.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.italyaround.com/en/calabria-climate-when-to-go-to-calabria/ |title=Calabria climate: when to go to Calabria – Italy: travel, recipes, family and health |date=17 March 2016 |access-date=13 April 2016 |archive-date=26 April 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160426005425/http://www.italyaround.com/en/calabria-climate-when-to-go-to-calabria/ |url-status=live }}</ref>
