Climate :-

Due to the lack of natural barriers, the climate is greatly influenced by the desert to the south and the Mediterranean Sea to the north. The coastal regions have a Mediterranean climate with moderate temperatures and enough rain during the winter season for grain farming. Annual precipitation averages 380 mm (15 in) and falls mainly in winter, and in the southern deserts, frequent periods of drought occur. A scorching wind called the "GHIBLI" which is a hot, very dry, occasionally blows into the usually humid coastal towns. The wind is most noticeable in Western Libya and is often associated with the spring solstice.
