===''Dwc'' and ''Dwd'' distribution=== {{Anchor|Koppen_Dwc}} Climates classified as ''Dwc'' or ''Dwd'', with a dry winter, are found in parts of East Asia, like China, where the [[Siberian High]] makes the winters colder than places like Scandinavia or Alaska interior but extremely dry (typically with around {{convert|5|mm|in|sp=us}} of rainfall equivalent per month), meaning that winter snow cover is very limited. The ''Dwc'' climate can be found in: *Much of northern [[Mongolia]] *Russia: **Most of [[Khabarovsk Krai]] except the south **Southeastern [[Sakha Republic]] **Southern [[Magadan Oblast]] **Northern [[Amur Oblast]] **Northern [[Republic of Buryatia|Buryatia]] **[[Zabaykalsky Krai]] **[[Irkutsk Oblast]] *China: **[[Tahe County]] and [[Mohe County]] in [[Heilongjiang]] **Northern [[Hulunbuir]] in [[Inner Mongolia]] **[[Gannan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture|Gannan]] in [[Gansu]] (due to extreme elevation) **[[Huangnan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture|Huangnan]], eastern [[Hainan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture|Hainan]] and eastern [[Golog Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture|Guoluo]] in [[Qinghai]] (due to extreme elevation) **Most of [[Garzê Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture|Garzê]] and [[Ngawa Tibetan and Qiang Autonomous Prefecture|Ngawa Autonomous Prefectures]] (due to extreme elevation) in [[Sichuan]] **Most of [[Qamdo Prefecture]] (due to extreme elevation) in the [[Tibet Autonomous Region]] *Parts of [[Ladakh]] (including [[Siachen Glacier]]) and [[Spiti Valley|Spiti]] regions of [[India]]{{Citation needed|reason=Not included in the referenced Köppen-Geiger Climate Map of the World by Murray Peel|date=October 2019}} *Middle reaches of the [[Himalayas]] in [[Nepal]], [[Bhutan]], [[Myanmar]], and [[Northeast India]]. *Parts of [[Kaema Plateau]] (including [[Mount Baekdu]], [[Samjiyon]], [[Musan]]) in [[North Korea]]{{Citation needed|reason=Not included in the referenced Köppen-Geiger Climate Map of the World by Murray Peel|date=October 2019}} *[[Southeast Fairbanks Census Area]] in [[Alaska]] In the Southern Hemisphere, small pockets of the Lesotho Highlands and the [[Drakensberg Mountains]] have a ''Dwc'' classification.
