Climate
[edit | edit source]Elmas has a hot-summer Mediterranean climate (Köppen: Csa) with summers being very hot and dry and winter mild and humid, associated with high subtropical pressure. The snow turns out to be a rare phenomenon, unlike mountains not so distant.[2] Its precipitation values also bring it closer to semi-arid conditions.[3][4]
