The Climate of Asia is wet across southeast sections, and dry across much of the interior.
Some of the largest daily temperature ranges on Earth occur in western sections of Asia.
The monsoon circulation dominates across southern and eastern sections, due to the presence
of the Himalayas forcing the formation of a thermal low which draws in moisture during the
summer. Southwestern sections of the continent are hot. Siberia is one of the coldest places in
the Northern Hemisphere, and can act as a source of arctic air masses for North America. The
most active place on Earth for tropical cyclone activity lies northeast of the Philippines and south
of Japan, and the phase of the El Nio-Southern Oscillation modulates where in Asia landfall is
more likely to occur
