On nearly the same latitude as the British Isles, Kamchatka has a cool climate. Winters are milder near the coast, but some inland places get over 20 feet [6 m] of snow and sometimes nearly 40 feet [12 m]!
Di Kamchatka, musim dingin di dekat daerah pantainya tidak terlalu dingin, tetapi beberapa daerah di pedalaman bisa ditutupi salju setebal enam meter lebih dan kadang - kadang hampir 12 meter!
