The expansive area of Siaberia is situated in the Northern part of Eurasia. Here continental type of climate is found. The temperature increases due to the Gulf stream water stream in the oceanic areas and the North Atlantic drift. These currents have very little effect in the inner part of the continent. Therefore, the temperature remains low in the inner part.

In winter, the temperature in most part of the ground falls even below 0°C. The lowest temperature of the world is recorded in this part. Thus, due to the effects of water bodies in the coastal areas and their wide surface area, the high latitudes and impact of the wind forms and the continental climate, the temperature range is found to be highest there.
