Climate
Corsica has a Mediterranean climate. Prevailing winds are south-westerly, westerly and north-westerly. This, of course, varies considerably with altitude and mountain forms. At about 1500 metres it becomes alpine. Micro climates give a wide variety of temperatures and rainfall. This is especially true between the north-west and the south-east, as the main mountain range divides the island roughly in half. As a general rule the north is hotter than the south.
Summers are long - from May till October. Winters can be cold and there's generally snow on the highest peaks until June, but by then, the ambient temperature is in the mid-20s°C [mid 70s°F]. The average for the year is 12° [about 54°F].
