The areas in the tropics and Antarctic and Arctic circles are known as the middle latitudes. These areas customarily experience moderate climates with 4 distinct seasons. This kind of climate is known as the temperate climates that have cold winters and warm summers with a uniform rainfall.

The area between the Antarctic and Arctic circles and the poles is named the high latitudes that experience polar climates. The winters are exceedingly long and cold whilst the summers are a little hotter here.

Snowfall is common in the Polar climate sectors. Though the climate sections provide with a broad helicopter view of the worldwide weather, each sector experience some variations in the local weathers. These climate areas are further sub-classified based primarily on maritime and continental places.

The maritime places are the areas along the coasts having a totally different climate from the continental or inland places. However the sub-classifications can't explain the variations thanks to the sea currents and mountain ranges. It is visible the worldwide sectors of climate change hereabouts to a degree. In a few cases, these variations may endure for ages and result in enigmas in the climatic conditions. Still the classifications of worldwide sectors of climate are useful in providing with an idea of the weather patterns across the world and the anticipated weather for an area.
