Continental Climate. Continentality is a measure of the degree to which the climate of a region typifies that of the interior of a large landmass.

The Climate of the British Isles. There is an important difference between describing weather of a place and the climate of a place. Weather refers to the short term conditions of the atmosphere at the local scale. Climate refers to the long term (30 years) conditions of the atmosphere at a regional scale.ainfall is freqent but not extreme and the climate generally is free from hazardous atmospheric systems. The climatic conditions in the British Isles are largely related to the influence of the Atlantic Ocean. The Atlantic Ocean acts as heat reservoir, storing warm water through the winter.
