The climate of Perm
Dfb Warm-summer humid continental. Warm summers and cold, snowy winters, with rain all year. A forest climate with four distinct seasons and a cold, snowy winter, but warm summers.
Perm is north of the equator, so summer falls in June to August and winter in December to February. The 1901 to 1930 map put Perm in Dfc (subarctic (boreal)), so its zone is different from a century ago.
Perm: then, now and by 2100
| Map | Climate zone | Compared with now |
|---|---|---|
| 1901 to 1930 | Dfc Subarctic (boreal) | Different from now |
| 1991 to 2020 (now) | Dfb Warm-summer humid continental | - |
| 2071 to 2099, SSP1-2.6 (low emissions) | Dfb Warm-summer humid continental | Same as now |
| 2071 to 2099, SSP2-4.5 (middle of the road) | Dfb Warm-summer humid continental | Same as now |
| 2071 to 2099, SSP5-8.5 (high emissions) | Dfa Hot-summer humid continental | Different from now |
The 2071 to 2099 rows are model projections under three emissions scenarios, not forecasts. The 1901 to 1930 row is a reconstruction. All come from Beck et al. (2023).
Under the middle-of-the-road scenario (SSP2-4.5), the model keeps Perm in Dfb in 2071 to 2099. Under the high-emissions scenario (SSP5-8.5) it is Dfa (hot-summer humid continental).
