Mild, rainy winters and hot, dry summers — here's what that means in plain terms.

What "hot-summer Mediterranean" means
Climate scientists sort every place on Earth into about 30 climate types, based on how hot, cold, wet and dry it is across the year. Jendouba's type — hot-summer mediterranean — sits in the broad family of mild, temperate climates.
Researchers write climate types as a short letter code. Here is what each letter means:

Has Jendouba's climate type changed?
A climate type is a coarse bucket. It can hold steady for years while the weather inside it shifts — or tip into the next bucket.
What this climate means for you
Wine grapes, olives, citrus, figs and rosemary thrive. Summer-active gardens need drip irrigation; cool-season crops do well over winter.
Spring and autumn are the perfect window — warm, dry and clear without summer's heat. Summer is hot but rain-free.
Sunny summers, mild winters and an outdoor lifestyle. Wildfires are the dominant summer risk in many areas.
Where these numbers come from
The climate type and the month-by-month figures on this page are computed from Jendouba's measured 30-year climate normals (1991–2020) — the same official records behind Jendouba's main climate page, so the two always agree.
Long-range climate maps measure things slightly differently and can place a city in a neighbouring category. Where they differ, this page uses the measured station record as the climate today.
Methodology & sources
Temperature & precipitation — 1991–2020 normals computed from 27 years of daily observations at Jendouba, a weather station, about 3 km from the city centre. The underlying daily records come from NOAA's global station network.
