The Yivríndi live in a temperate zone with generally warm climate between a large ocean and a large mountain range. Since it's a temperate zone, there are four recognizable seasons characterized by mild, dry summers, and cool winters with snow, but not excessive cold. Fall and spring both tend to be rainy and cool. The southern part of the area where the Yivríndi live is much warmer and Mediterranean, but the main Yivríndil cultural centers are further north.
