Both spring and autumn are short, the former often cold, the latter often warm, but both quite dry and sunny. Yamagata Prefecture, along with northern parts of Miyagi and Iwate are the transition areas from <a href="/wiki/Humid_subtropical_climate" title="Humid subtropical climate">humid subtropical climate</a> (<a href="/wiki/K%C3%B6ppen_climate_classification" title="Köppen climate classification">Koppen</a> <i>Cfa</i>/<i>Cwa</i>) to <a href="/wiki/Humid_continental" class="mw-redirect" title="Humid continental">humid continental</a> within the Japan mainland. Winter temperatures rarely fall below −10 °C (14 °F) in populated areas; they frequently rise above 30 °C (86 °F) in July and August. Precipitation falls all year round and the remnants of one or perhaps two <a href="/wiki/Typhoon" title="Typhoon">typhoons</a> usually pass through between August and October. The winters see heavy snowfall especially at higher elevations, though the Japan Sea coast (<a href="/wiki/Sakata,_Yamagata" title="Sakata, Yamagata">Sakata</a>) is milder and has more rain. Snowfall for <a href="/wiki/Shinj%C5%8D,_Yamagata" title="Shinjō, Yamagata">Shinjō</a> is typical of populated mountainous areas, snowfall for <a href="/wiki/Yamagata,_Yamagata" class="mw-redirect" title="Yamagata, Yamagata">Yamagata City</a> typical of the valleys. The central mountains around <a href="/wiki/Mount_Gassan" title="Mount Gassan">Gassan</a> may see as much as 3,000 centimetres (98.43 ft) of snow in a season with depths up to 8 metres (26 ft) at higher elevations. </p> <div> <table class="wikitable mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" style="width:auto;
