If a place has the warmest month slightly above 10°C and very severe winters, why will it not fall in group E?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Because group E requires the warmest month to be below 10°C
Köppen group E is defined by a very cold thermal regime in which the warmest month has a mean temperature below 10°C. If the warmest month is even slightly above 10°C, the place fails the E threshold and may instead enter a D or another non-polar group, depending on its other temperatures.
