f: No dry season—does not meet either of the alternative specifications above; precipitation and humidity are often high year-round. The third letter denotes temperature: c : Regular subarctic, only one–three months above 10 °C (50.0 °F), coldest month between 0 °C (32 °F) (or −3 °C (27 °F)) and −38 °C (−36.4 °F).
