here's your answer!!☺☺

The central European, or transitional, type of climate results from the interaction of both maritime and continental air masses and is found at the core of Europe, south and east of the maritime type, west of the much larger continental type, and north of the Mediterranean type. That rugged region has colder winters, with substantial mountain snowfalls, and warmer summers, especially in the lowlands. Precipitation is adequate to abundant, with a summer maximum.

The region embraces central Sweden, southern Finland, the Oslo Basin of Norway, eastern France, southwestern Germany, and much of central and southeastern Europe. The range between winter and summer temperatures increases eastward, while the precipitation can exceed 80 inches (2,000 mm) in the mountains, with snow often lying permanently around high peaks. The Danubian region has only modest rainfall (about 24 inches [600 mm] per year at Budapest), but the Dinaric Alps experience heavy cyclonic winter, as well as summer, rain.
