Mediterranean climate is characterized by hot, dry summers and mild, wet winters. While Syria, Lebanon, and Israel are located on the eastern Mediterranean coast and experience variations of this climate, Jordan’s climate is predominantly arid to semi-arid, lacking the characteristic wet winters of the Mediterranean climate in most parts of the country. Only a small northwestern tip bordering Israel and Syria might have some marginal Mediterranean influence.

– Mediterranean climate is marked by dry summers and wet winters.
– Countries directly bordering the Mediterranean Sea often experience this climate.
– Syria, Lebanon, and Israel have significant areas with Mediterranean climate influence.
– Jordan’s climate is mainly arid or semi-arid.

Countries that experience Mediterranean climate include those around the Mediterranean Sea (e.g., Italy, Greece, parts of Turkey, coastal areas of North Africa, coastal Spain, southern France), coastal California, central Chile, the Cape Region of South Africa, and parts of southwestern and southern Australia. The eastern Mediterranean coastal strip shared by Syria, Lebanon, and Israel falls within this zone. Jordan is mostly an inland country lying to the east of this coastal zone, placing it in a more desert or steppe climate zone.
