Climate
Latitude and altitude are the principal influences on the climate of Roqoo. As it stretches from central to northern Alharu Roqoo experiences four distinct seasons. Only in the south is summer slightly longer than the other seasons. On the average, each season lasts almost exactly 3 months.
The Ygros Sea to the north interacts with the Alharu continet to modify the climate of the country, forming milder temperatures and less severe changes the farther north in the country one travels. Conversely, northerly winds from the Paran desert in central Alharu warm the southern region. These winds interacting with the low pressure systems of Chenshas Lake can cause severe winters and high temperatures in the summer.
The highest ever recorded temperature is 37.8 °C (100 °F) (Navala, 13 SEL 2013 (26 Jul 2013)). The lowest, -42.3 °C (-46 °F)(Forssa, 25 TOV 1987 (25 Jan 1987). The annual mid temperature is relatively high in the southern region (5.0 to 7.5 °C or 41.0 to 45.5 °F), with mild winters and hot summers; yet lower in central through northern regions (-1 to 4 °C or 33.8 to 39.2 °F).
