The Mediterranean coast is characterised by hot rainless summers and mild and humid winters with an occasional cold north westerly wind known as mistral. Finally severe climates are found only in the mountains. High in the French Alps and Pyrenees, winters are long and snowy, sufficient to support ski resorts.
