The climate of Denver is categorised as semi-arid, characterised by dry, cold winters and warm wet summers. The best seasons in Denver are spring and autumn. Although situated on the Great Plains, Denver is protected from the worst of the winter storms by its proximity to the Rocky Mountains. The city does experience some anomalous weather sometimes, in the form of unseasonal snow falls. Rainfall figures are low, and the city authorities claim that Denver has 300 sunny days a year, but in summer moist air flows in from the Gulf of Mexico bringing afternoon thunderstorms. Average annual snowfall is around 60 inches.
