The average rainfall per year is about 23.6 inches. Western Hungary receives more rain than the east side, which can sometimes have severe drouts in summer. Weather in the Great Plain can be especially bad, they have very hot summers and very cold winters.

Hungary's countryside is very pretty. It is known to be home to over 2000 plant species! It is strange because some of these plants aren't expected to grow in Hungary's climate.
