Which of the following is NOT a characteristic of the climate in central Spain?

The climate in central Spain is predominantly characterized as hot continental, with high summer temperatures being a notable feature. The region experiences significant temperature variations between seasons, with hot summers and relatively cold winters, which aligns with the characteristics of a continental climate.

Moderate maritime and cool coastal breezes, on the other hand, are typically associated with coastal areas influenced by the ocean. In central Spain, which is situated away from the coast, the climate lacks these moderating coastal influences that would provide such characteristics. Therefore, option B, moderate maritime, is the correct choice as it does not accurately describe the climate of central Spain.
