A span of about four weeks centred on the mid-point of the M-climate period is used constructing the model climate. This means that during:
- winter and summer there are usually only small seasonal changes. The range of maximum and minimum temperatures is less than around the equinoxes. The M-climate value is rather more representative of the mid-point of the period.
- spring and autumn there are rather larger seasonal changes. The range of maximum and minimum temperatures is greater than around the solstices (e.g. minima during the period late April to late May are included in the calculation of the M-Climate for early May). The M-climate value is rather less representative of the mid-point of the period.

On average, during the periods used for calculation of M-Climate (approx 4 weeks):
- in spring and autumn, minimum temperatures rise/fall by around 4°C,
- in summer and winter, minimum temperatures remain relatively constant.
