| 81 | The climate on Saint Pierre and Miquelon is a cool
marine one, with rarely any warm and sunny days.
Winters are cold and long, lasting from October to
April. Temperatures are somewhat tempered by the
surrounding waters, but can still drop well below
zero, both during the day and night. Snowfall
occurs during this time as well. Sping and early
summer are still quite cool and foggy. Late summer
and early fall (August and September) are quite
warm, sunny and dry. Rainfall is possible during
most months though, and averages around 1,500 mm a
year. Average temperatures range from -10ºC in
winter to around 20ºC in summer, with relatively
little variation between day and night compared to
neighbouring mainland Canada. | 81 | The climate on Saint Pierre and Miquelon is a cool
