Seoul knows 4 distinct seasons. Its climate can be described as a land-climate, despite its proximity to the seas. The summers are hot with a high humidity, but are also inclusive of Seoul's raining season, between June and September. Influenced by the Pacific winds, the temperature can vary between 25 and 35 degrees Celsius. In the winter the city is affected by Siberian winds, which takes the average temperature down to 0 to -10 degrees Celsius. Spring and autumn are considered the most comfortable seasons.
