Kenya is a country about as large as France and situated in East Africa between 5°N and 5°S. It has a very diverse relief with a low coastal plain on the Indian Ocean shore, extensive inland plateaux regions between 915 m/3,000 ft and 1,500 m/5,000 ft and several mountain ranges and isolated peaks such as Mount Kenya, which rises to 5,200 m/17,000 ft and has a permanent snow-cap.\n\nIt is bordered on the north by Ethiopia and Somalia, on the south by Tanzania, and on the west by Uganda and the shores of Lake Victoria.\n\nAlthough Kenya lies athwart the equator, annual rainfall over most of the country is surprisingly low and rather variable from year to year. This is because the intertropical belt of cloud and rain passes rather quickly across Kenya in April and October and because the predominant seasonal winds, the north and south monsoons as they are called in East Africa, have a track parallel to the coast and have already passed over large areas of land before reaching Kenya.\n\nTemperatures over much of Kenya are subtropical or temperate, because of the reduction of temperature with altitude, and are similar to those in California, summer in France or southern Britain rather than those elsewhere in equatorial Africa.\n\nOnly the coastal lowlands experience the constant high temperatures and humidity associated with equatorial latitudes. Even here they are less oppressive than one might expect, because of the regular daytime sea breezes and longer hours of sunshine.\nThe variety of relief and the range of altitude in Kenya produce a considerable number of distinctive local climates and local weather too numerous to be detailed here. The country can be divided broadly into four climatic regions, each with certain features of equatorial climates.\n\nThere is a double rainy season between March and May and between November and December, with two intervening dry seasons. There is a small difference in temperature from month to month through the year. Both these features can be seen in the three tables for Kenya included here. The four climatic regions are:\n\nThe Coastal Region\nThe average annual rainfall is over 1,000 mm/40 in, except in the north where it is rather less. The wettest months are April and May as the intertropical rain-belt moves north. The second rainy season in October and November, sometimes called the 'little rains' in Kenya, is less conspicuous. Some rain, often in the form of night or early morning showers, occurs in all months.\n\nTemperatures remain quite high around the year as does humidity; but the weather is less oppressive than might be thought because of the regular and strong onshore winds in the daytime and the greater number of sunshine hours which average seven to eight a day in all months. The weather, however, can feel sultry, particularly at night.\nThe Northern Frontier Districts and the Lower Inland Plateau\nMuch of this region has a very low annual rainfall for an equatorial region. Rainfall is generally below 500 mm/20 in and in the far north is often below 250 mm/10 in.\n\nIn the lower districts temperatures are high round the year, there is much sunshine, and the region is a typical hot desert like the adjoining southern parts of Somalia and Ethiopia. Humidity is low and, apart from occasional excessive heat, it is a healthy climate.\n\nThe Kenya Highlands\nMost of this region lies between 1,220 m/4,000 ft and 2,150 m/7,000 ft and occupies the centre and west of the country on either side of the eastern Rift valley, extending to the Ugandan border. It is the most densely populated part of the country and contains the most productive agricultural land.\n\nThere is a double rainy season but rainfall is moderate and only exceeds 1,250 mm/50 in a year on the higher parts. Over most of the region the sunniest time of the year is from December to March. The cloudiest period is from June to September when there is much drizzle but little heavy rain. This period is often called &#

"Winters in southern Africa extend from mid May to early August - by the experience of the northern hemisphere African winters are extremely mild.\n\nSeasons in Africa are not as distinct by contrast with what you'll encounter in Europe or North America. The further you move towards the tropics, the less defined the seasons are. Cape Town is probably the most extreme climate that you will encounter. It is however also unique in Africa because it has a Mediterranean weather system, unlike the rest of the continent.\n\nWildlife enthusiasts generally favour the dry season when temperatures are moderate to high. Game activities are generally limited by the availability of fresh grazing and browsing resources. Rains usually scatter browsers and their persistent predators; dry periods predictably concentrate animals around residual water sources. "

Climate describes the general weather pattern for a region, and weather is specific to a time i.e. today it is raining, that is the weather but to say that New England summers are moderately warm and humid that would be the climate.

1) What do you mean by "a climate graph"? Rainfall, temperature, air pressure, evaporative demand, humidity, cloud cover, incident radiation and a million other variables all combine to make up climate. You can't have graph that shows them all.\n\n2) Have you tried simply putting [canungra climate] or [ Lamington National Park climate] into Google? That seems to provide a hell of a lot of information without expecting to be spoon fed.

Climate- tropical along coast, temperate inland, arid in the south\nThere are two seasons - a hot rainy season from November to April, and a cooler, dry season from May to October. East Coast has most rainfall, notorious for a hot, humid climate. The average yearly temperature is 18.4 degrees Celsius (65 degrees Fahrenheit).

Climate may be a factor in the success of a country.  The mid-latitudes tend to have moderate temperatures and well defined growing seasons thus allowing for good agriculture and  livestock conditions.  These provide a reliable food source which can support a larger population.\n\nNorthern and Southern latitudes have very long and cold winters which are not conducive to agriculture although there are some livestock that can handle these conditions (carribou, yaks, etc.)  Converely, the more equatorial latitudes have high temperatures.  Depending on the humidity of the region, this can lead to either desert or jungle conditions.  Deserts are very difficult to grow in due to lack of moisture whereas with jungles, controlling the natural vegetation and keeping it from invading agriculture fields is a near impossible task.  In addition, the tropics have many diseases the thrive in that environment leading to a higher mortality rate.
