The climate is in the [[temperate zone]]. According to the [[Köppen climate classification]] the northern parts of the island and the coastal regions (apart from those lay adjacent to [[Strelasund]]) are under the influence of the [[oceanic climate]] (''Cfb''), meanwhile the remaining majority of the area is dominated by the [[humid continental climate]] (''Dfb'').<ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Beck |first1=Hylke E. |last2=Zimmermann |first2=Niklaus E. |last3=McVicar |first3=Tim R. |last4=Vergopolan |first4=Noemi |last5=Berg |first5=Alexis |last6=Wood |first6=Eric F. |date=2018-10-30 |title=Present and future Köppen-Geiger climate classification maps at 1-km resolution |journal=Scientific Data |language=en |volume=5 |issue=1 |pages=180214 |doi=10.1038/sdata.2018.214 |pmid=30375988 |pmc=6207062 |bibcode=2018NatSD...580214B |issn=2052-4463}}</ref> The winters are not particularly cold, with mean temperatures in January and February of {{cvt|0.0|C}}; and summers are mild and temperate, with a mean temperature in August of {{cvt|16.3|C}}.
