Some parts of Europe are mountainous and some are flat. There are many mountainous regions in Southern Europe. Most of Northern Europe is part of the cast Northern European Plain. The Northern European Plain also consists of most of Europe's major rivers. The climate of Southern Europe is very warm and sunny and as a result, shrubs and trees that don't need a lot of water are common there. Northern Europe, near Scandinavia, is the total opposite. It is very cold and snowy throughout the year. Northwestern Europe, on the other hand, is in between these two parts of Europe. It is mild, cooler, and wetter. Cold winds from the north and northeast bring freezing weather in winter. This is how Europe's landforms and climates vary by region.

The Gulf Stream is assumed to be the primary reason Europe is several degrees warmer than what would normally be expected for the latitude.
