Editing Menorca (section)

== Climate ==
As the major part of Balearic Islands, Menorca has a [[mediterranean climate]] ([[Köppen climate classification|Köppen]]: ''[[hot-summer Mediterranean climate|Csa]]''), with mild winters and hot summers. Menorca is generally wetter than Mallorca, with rainfall peaking in late autumn. Average annual highs range between {{convert|14|C|F}} in winter to {{convert|29|C|F}} in summer. Due to its offshore position and the small size of the island, temperatures are generally quite stable.
