Climate of Algiers

        In Algeria, the biggest nation in Africa, there are three sorts of atmosphere: the mellow Mediterranean atmosphere of the drift (zone 1 on the guide), the transitional atmosphere of the northern slopes and mountains (zone 2), somewhat more mainland and modestly stormy, lastly the abandon atmosphere of the huge range involved by the Sahara.

        In the thin waterfront strip the atmosphere is commonly Mediterranean, with mellow, blustery winters and hot, sunny summers. The downpours are scarcer in the western part (see Oran) where they change in the vicinity of 330 and 400 millimeters (13 and 16 inches) every year, and along these lines here the scene is more bone-dry, while they turn out to be more plentiful in the focal and eastern parts (see Algiers, Annaba) where they vary in the vicinity of 600 and 800 mm (23.5 and 31.5 in). The greater part of the downpours happens among October and April.

        By difference, the temperatures in the drift are fairly uniform: the normal in January is around 11/12 °C (52/53.5 °F), while in August (which is, yet marginally, the hottest month) it is around 25/26 °C (77/79 °F). Summer is sunny, the air is very moist, yet the breeze blows from the ocean. Now and then a hot twist originating from the betray, called Chili, can blow: it achieves the drift after climbing the mountains, and it can bring about a sudden drop in relative stickiness, and to bring sand and tidy; this wind is more continuous in spring and harvest time.

        The ocean is sufficiently warm to swim from July to September, while in June it's still somewhat cool. In the eastern piece of the drift (see Annaba), the ocean is somewhat hotter than in the western part (see Oran), where there is some penetration of the Atlantic waters. Here is the normal water temperature in Algiers, situated in the focal part.


        The bumpy range is separate in two chains, Tell Atlas and Saharan Atlas; the previous is wetter since it gets all the more effortlessly muggy winds from the ocean, and in winter it's cold, so that a few resorts where you can ski, particularly from December to March.

        Between the two territories, we discover a level, with a few urban areas in the vicinity of 1,000 and 1,300 meters (3,300 and 4,200 feet). Here the atmosphere is marginally mainland, with frosty winters and hot summers.

        For instance, in Sétif, at 1,000 meters (3,300 feet) above ocean level, the normal in January is 5.5 °C (42 °F), while in July it's 26.5 °C (79 °F). So here the late spring is as hot as on the drift, however the moistness is lower, moreover, it's more sizzling amid the day and cooler during the evening. Winter is fairly frosty, particularly when chilly air masses win, which can now and again bring even snow and ice.
