Calculating the Seasonal Distribution of Precipitation Indicates the climate influences at work, and therefore different climate types.
For winter:
Add precipitation totals for October, November, December, January, February, and March.
Winter Max. = Maritime
(large difference between Winter and Summer = West Coast)
(slight difference between Winter and Summer = East Coast)
For Summer: add precipitation totals for April, May, June, July, August, and September.
Summer Max. = Continental
Ex: 25+53+77+70+49+48= Summer = 322
15+12+13+12+10+15= Winter = 77
(larger Number) - (smaller Number) = East or West Coast
322 - 77 = 245 = West Coast

How do you calculate annual precipitation?
How do you calculate the annual precipitation?
What factors influence precipitation?
Factors that influence precipitation include air temperature (warmer air can hold more moisture), air pressure (low pressure systems tend to bring precipitation), wind patterns (can transport moisture to different regions), and proximity to bodies of water (water bodies can supply moisture to the air).
What are 3 factors that affect precipitation?
prevailing winds mountain range seasonal winds
How do you calculate total annual precipitation?
If you are to be given all the month's precipitation. Add the precipitation of all 12 months, and that should leave you with the answer to the total annual precipitation. That's it. Just add everything :D
