The humid subtropical regions can be found on the southeast sides of the continent. They are usually found between latitude 40°S and 20°N. These places experience high humidity, warm summers, and relatively mild winters. In the summer, temperatures usually run from around 75°F to 90°F. Because of the areas' geographical locations, the winter months rarely go below 32°F. These months usually reach temperatures between 45°F and 50°F

In eastern and southern Asia, the monsoon influence results in a modified humid subtropical climate that has a clearly defined dry winter when air diverges from the Siberian anticyclone, the polar front and cyclone paths are deflected around the region. These areas generally lie on the pole ward side of tropical monsoon and tropical wet-dry climates and exhibit a somewhat larger annual temperature range. The winters are sunny and rather cool.
