Climate

The Niagara Region lies between two Great Lakes - Erie to the South and Ontario to the North - and is considered to be a temperate climate zone. Because the two bodies of water moderate the area's temperatures, this makes the Niagara Region ideal for tender fruit growing.
 
Uniform precipitation is expected throughout the year, with no remarkable periods of wet or dry peaks.
