Germany's temperate maritime climate transitions to continental conditions as you move from west to east. The North Sea and Baltic coasts are influenced by maritime air, bringing mild winters, cool summers, and persistent cloud cover. Central Germany experiences a mix of both influences, while Bavaria in the south has a more continental climate with colder winters and warmer summers, plus the added influence of Alpine föhn winds that can bring rapid warming.
