Canada has a vast geography that occupies much of the continent of North America, sharing a land border with the contiguous United States to the south and the U.S. state of Alaska to the northwest. Canada stretches from the Atlantic Ocean in the east to the Pacific Ocean in the west; to the north lies the Arctic Ocean . [ 1 ]
For Sydney, the highest temperature ever recorded was 36.7 °C (98 °F) on August 18, 1935, [9] and the lowest was −31.7 °C (−25 °F) on January 31, 1873, [10] and January 29, 1877.

Annual average temperatures in Canada increased by 1.7 °C between 1948 and 2016. These weather changes have not been uniform across regions. British Columbia, the Prairie provinces and Northern Canada experienced warming the most, with an annual increase of 2.3 °C for northern Canada. Meanwhile, some Maritime areas of southeast Canada ...
Much of the area was a scrub desert, with desert-like conditions extending to several other states. [7] [8] Current global warming may make the grassland climate more unstable, giving way to desert given more fires, mild drought and erosion; UCAR simulations based on evapotranspiration support a Palmer Drought Index lower than -15, many times ...
Temperatures here are similar to the semi-arid climate zone, but this region is the most humid area in the Prairie Provinces with moderate precipitation. [ 2 ] Southwestern Manitoba, though under the same climate classification as the rest of Southern Manitoba, is closer to the semi-arid interior of Palliser's Triangle , and as such, is drier ...
