The monthly 24-hour average temperature ranges from NaN°C in January to 24.3°C in July, while the annual mean is 10°C; however, high temperatures peak in August. Due to the coastal location, temperatures are moderated in the summer, but prevailingly northerly and westerly winds minimise maritime influence during winter.
