Well, if you take a look at the map, you'll see that Croatia spreads from lowlands on the north to the Adriatic sea at the south. In the middle, there are mountains in Lika and Gorski Kotar regions. The coldest winters are right there, with most of snow. Due to a strong wind (bora), snow can be expected even at the sea (but never lasts long, perhaps only a few hours). Northern parts are mostly dry and cold, not too much snow lately.
I live near Hungarian border, and we didn't even see any snow this Winter. Hopefully, there'll be some in next few days.
Today morning: -10.4 Celsius (13 Fahrenheit). Meteorologists promised -20 Celsius (-4 Fahrenheit) by the end of this week. We'll see.
Oh, yes - the Summer! People in mountains sleep the best (temperatures aren't that high, while nights are fresh). It's nice at the seaside because - although it is hot, there's sea there. A lot of warm, clean water! Here, where I live, it is hot and steamily; we usually have 2-3 weeks of almost unbearable conditions (at the end of July), but the rest is OK (more or less).
